RE: Transaction handler weirdness

[Gerald Richter]

Try at 
the start of your handler
 
sub 
handler
    {
    my $r = shift ;
    
    Apache -> request ($r) 
;
 
 
This 
sets the request record which is needed by the newer version of 
CGI.pm

  weirdness
  Hi,
   
  We have recently installed a new machine with Apache/1.3.9  mod_perl/1.21 mod_ssl/2.4.10 OpenSSL/0.9.4 perl 
  5.004_04 configured 
   
  A perl transaction handler that works fine on Apache/1.3.6 
  mod_perl/1.21 5.00503 is now intermittantly dying on the new box 
  
  with the following error;
   
  Can't call method "register_cleanup" on an undefined value 
  at /usr/lib/perl5/5.00503/CGI.pm at line 263
   
  The transaction handler is trying to parse cookies into a 
  hash as follows
   
    my %cookies = 
  CGI::Cookie->parse($r->header_in('Cookie'));
   
  Line 263 of CGI.pm is 
   
      
  Apache->request->register_cleanup(\&CGI::_reset_globals);
   
  in the following sub routine
   
  sub new {    my($class,$initializer) = 
  @_;    my $self = {};    bless $self,ref 
  $class || $class || $DefaultClass;    if ($MOD_PERL) 
  {
      
  Apache->request->register_cleanup(\&CGI::_reset_globals);
      undef 
  $NPH;    }    $self->_reset_globals 
  if $PERLEX;    
  $self->init($initializer);    return 
  $self;}
   
   
  Any ideas as to where the problem lies?  
  
   
  Thanks
