I was wondering if it was possible to pass data from a handler to a
custom_response declared handler within apache2/mod_perl2. I am putting
a custom_response on the the HTTP_FORBIDDEN return code to direct the
user to a login page (custom_response(Apache::HTTP_FORBIDDEN,
'login.pl')), so if the user/pass doesn't pass muster in the
authentication phase, or if they aren't allow to view the page because
their permissions aren't high enough in the authorization phase, the
handler returns a custom page telling the user to login or what their
error was. I'd like to tell them why they are at the custom response
page (i.e. they are required to login or they entered and invalid
user/pass). I've tried using notes and pnotes that I set in the
authentication and authorization phases, but it looks like the
custom_response actually creates a new request (or is it a subrequest?),
and the notes and pnotes that I set aren't being seen by the
ModPerl::Registry login page. Is there any way to pass data to a
custom_response defined page? Any better ideas on how to handle this,
other than putting it in a get request and redirecting?
