Using the debian-stable-provided version of mod_perl, I've got an app that's
working fine however the way it was configured meant we were causing an
early load of perl during the configuration phase of apache. I fixed the
apache config so that mod_perl was loaded post-config then started getting
the error:
Can't locate object method "server_name" via package "Apache2::ServerRec"
Simply adding an empty <Perl></Perl> block into the config makes it go away
again, but obviously triggers the early load of perl.
So is this behaviour a bug or something that I've missed in the
documentation?
(I've fixed my problem for now by loading the module in the startup.pl)
