Thia is what I meant with "loading". So, I should have been more precise: "using" :-)

The outcome is the same in both cases. If I attempt to install it from CPAN, it says that it is already installed.

Best regards Andreas Mock Von: John Dunlap [mailto:j...@lariat.co] Gesendet: Dienstag, 18. März 2014 16:59 An: mod_perl list Betreff: Custom response problem I recently upgraded my workstation from Debian 6 to Debian 7 and I'm now encountering a problem that I haven't seen before. My apache version is 2.2.22-13+deb7u1. My mod_perl version is 2.0.7-3. I'm guessing that I have an installation problem of some kind but I'm not sure where to look for problems. My application works correctly until I attempt to define a custom response, as follows, sub handler { my $apache = shift; $apache->custom_response(Apache2::Const::HTTP_INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR, 'hi mom'); return Apache2::Const::HTTP_INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR; } I see a 500 error, which is what I want, when I access the page. However the error page is the default apache 500 error response page and I want to override it. When I look in the logs, I see this: [Tue Mar 18 15:41:32 2014] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] Can't locate object method "custom_response" via package "Apache2::RequestRec" at /usr/local/lariat-trunk/qa-trunk/lib/Lariat/V4/WS/RS/BootstrapHandler.pm line 41. This would imply, at least to me, that this method is not compiled into mod_perl or perhaps into apache itself but I cannot be sure. Any suggestions? Cheers!
