My impression is that it's just broken, since I recall seeing the same behavior. This has come up before, but no one seems to know quite why it doesn't work. It's typically not much of an issue since the average startup.pl just does 'use Foo', and the use statement will only load Foo once. As a workaround, see the $Apache::Server::ReStarting variable in the docs or load your startup.pl like this: <Perl>use startup.pl;</Perl> - Perrin -- Report problems: http://perl.apache.org/bugs/ Mail list info: http://perl.apache.org/maillist/modperl.html List etiquette: http://perl.apache.org/maillist/email-etiquette.html
