Session
hi, Is there Session module that has capability more like ASP::Session rather than Apache::Session.(I mean hanlidng the cookies too, Joshua is it easy to extract Session functionality from ASP as a standalone module :")).

Re: Win32+PerlModule works !!!
Thanks a lot, Randy!!! I recompiled mod_perl with that flag, and now PerlModule/PerlRequire/Use ... work! Apache comes up, and everything seems fine so far! But I don't know how this flag influences whatever. Apache loads all APache modules twice. This flag disables all PerlRequire and PerlModule statements on the first load, so they can succeed on the second load. Without that flag, the second load fails. If that works for all Win32-systems and has no bad side-effect, I suggest that it should be inserted into the distributed 'mod_perl.h'-file - thinking I'm not the only one having this problem ... I have suggest to make this default for NT when I send this patch to Doug, but he decided, to make it conditional. Gerald
Re: EmbPerl use HTML::Embperl failed ( just Win95 )
I copied both Apache and Perl from NT to Win95 after I recompiled mod_perl with the PERL_STARTUP_DONE_CHECK flag and it worked! PerlModule/PerlRequire and use let Apache start - fine ! It works on NT and Win95. I was so happy about it that I thought the other problem is solved too - but it was not! On NT batch EmbPerl is running - but not on Win95! Same old message: Can't load 'C:/perl561/site/5.00561/lib/MSWin32-x86/auto/HTML/Embperl/Embperl.dll' for module HTML::Embperl: load_file:Eine DLL-Initialisierungsroutine ist fehlgeschlagen at C:/perl561/5.00561/lib/MSWin32-x86/DynaLoader.pm line 72. at embp.pl line 1 BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at embp.pl line 1.

mod_perl and proxying
Hi all,
On my system I have a global PerlHandler module that processes all incoming
requests. Within itself, the module filters out requests that are not of
particular MIME types or requests containing '/resources/' in their uris
and lets them to be processed by their intended handlers (by returning
DECLINED).
What I want to add next is the logic to proxy all POST requests for .xml
files to a different invocation of the server running under a different
user/group so that the files can be updated with POSTed data.
For this job I decided to use the rewerite module with the following rule:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} ^POST$
RewriteRule ^(.*\.xml.*)$ http://localhost:8088$1 [P]
The problem is that my main PerlHandler gets called right after the rewrite
module is done and I end up with the following error message in the error log:
File does not exist: proxy:http://localhost:8088/data.xml
I've tried returning DECLINED from the handler to let the proxy module to
kick in (with return DECLINED if $r-filename =~ m/^proxy:/;), but I still
get the same error message.
In the configuration file, the rewrite rule come before the mod_perl
handler is set.
Am I trying to do the impossible? Or am I simply missing something obvious?
Thanks in advance for comments
Dmitry

Is it possible that the proxy setup is somehow screwed up? I checked and

turned on. I can't think of anything else to check.

Did you try to compile mod_perl with #define PERL_STARTUP_DONE_CHECK 1 at the top of the mod_perl.h? This may solve your problem. Yes, without that define, DBI breaks and I can't run from the command line without -X Very frustrating, but no more so than the typical experience of using NT. John [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Session

hi,
Is there Session module that has capability more like ASP::Session
rather than Apache::Session.(I mean hanlidng the cookies too, Joshua is
it easy to extract Session functionality from ASP as a standalone module
:")).
OR
what mostly the MASON people use to handle Sessions.
There is no nice way to lift the Apache::ASP::Session
out of the ASP framework, since the event handling is
all held outside of the module. If you want the $Session
without the events, just use Apache::Session. Below is
some init code that may help with your cookie issues, but
you will have to undo the ASP dependent code obvi.
I don't know how using Apache::Session plugs into Mason
to make the $Session available in any script, but if
you have a pre-content handler init the Session, you could
set $main::Session, and have that available from anywhere
in perl.

How to use perl with apache??
Hi, I have come to know that if i want to use perl for my dynamic web-pages, i have to configure my apache with mod_perl module. I would really appreciate if someone can provide me some help on how to do it or install perl module for apache??? (pardon my proper english) All i am trying to achieve is, configure my apache so that I can write perl scripts that can generate dynamic web-pages (just like CGI stuff).

Re: Win32+PerlModule works !!!

Have you been able to install it as a NT Service? I can only run 1.3.9/1.2.21 from the command line. 1.3.6/1.2.21 are working fine. :( I hate NT. John No, because on the Apache installation guide it was described that one should have a special "install shield" tool to get the NT Service to work. But I start Apache from a simple command shell and I like it much more than do some "clicky-clicky" to get into the services folder and do other clicks to stop/start/restart the server. Using command-lines it's only Ctr-C and DblClick! This is one of many reasons I like Apache: I spent some time with IIS and ASP and hated IIS because of its overdimensionaled graphical interface. Then I went to Apache and found that the whole thing can be done within one editable config file - http.conf ... Why do you wish to have the Apache as NT Service to run? If you have good arguments, let me know! Rolf
'var' instead of var ... (getting crazy)
Dear Folks,
a kind of weird problem is making me crazy:
i wrote two scripts, all under mod_perl and they seem to be
ok. One calls the other one and passes some arguments to
it through the query_string (url_params); well, the latter
usually reads this query_string in correctly, like this:
record=32lang=it
as i can see calling $query-query_string(), having defined
$query as a "new CGI" (CGI.pm).
So far so good, BUT, SOMETIMES (random?) query_string is read
like:
'record=32lang=it'
which makes the script crash because in this case $language =
$query-url_param('lang') comes out to be "it'", instead of
"it", (unless i write $language =~ s/'// , of course, but i
refuse to!), and my script is instructed not to deal with
"it'" language...! 8|
More: this behaviour --a variable read as "'name'" instead of
"name"-- doesn't only happen with query string params but also
with other variables, rather often, like $query-remote_host()
or whatever you like...
Where could my (possibly idiotic) error be?
Finally, I can't understand if it's a modperl's (?) problem
(PerlWarns is On but _nothing_ is printed) or rather a
CGI.pm's strange behaviour, so I hope not to bother you too
much (i apologize).
Thank you very much!

the [query_string (url_params)] usually reads this query_string in correctly, like this: record=32lang=it BUT, SOMETIMES (random?) query_string is read like: 'record=32lang=it' Where could my error be? Do you have any mod_perl handlers that work at an earlier phase of the request? Maybe they add the quotes by accident. Is the requested proxied from a front-end or is mod_rewrite used? The quotes may be introduced there by accident. ELB -- Eric L. Brine | Chicken: The egg's way of making more eggs. [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Do you always hit the nail on the thumb?
