So from the preamble to the newbie question! :
How do I go about getting more information back to my login form from Apache using mod_perl in my custom AuthCookieHandler as to what the "bad_cookie" message actually means without trying to decipher much of the magic in Apache::AuthCookie?
bad_cookie means that authen_ses_key($r, $cookie) did not return a username.
Because authen_ses_key() is implemented by your AuthCookie subclass, and not AuthCookie iteslf, AuthCookie can not tell you anything about *why* authen_ses_key() failed. So you'll have to figure out why your subclass failed to return the username.
