I use a database table for the queue. No file locking issues, atomic
transactions, you can sort and order the jobs, etc . . . you can wrap the
entire "queue" library in a module. Plus, the background script that
processes the queue can easily run with higher permissions, and you don't

I hope it is clear that you don't want fork the whole server!
Mod_cgi goes to great pains to effectively fork a subprocess, and
was the major impetus I believe for the development of
the C subprocess API. It (the source code for
mod_cgi) is a great place to learn some of the
subtleties as the Ea

I was just going to post that url to the guide also... But another option
I've come up with not listed in the guide is to use the *nix "at" command.

Hi David,
Check out the guide at
http://perl.apache.org/guide/performance.html#Forking_and_Executing_Subprocess
The Eagle book also covers the C API subprocess details on page 622-631.
Let us know if the guide is unclear to you, so we can improve it.

Hi All,
Quick question - can I fork off a process in mod_perl? I've got a piece
of code that needs to do a lot of processing that's unrelated to what
shows up in the browser. So I'd like to be able to fork the processing
off and return data to the browser, letting the forked process handle

It seems I forgot to pre-load the Apache::Status module, it works now once I
add the following line in configuration file:
PerlModule Apache::Status;
I also pre-loaded B::Terse in the startup.pl.
Thanks

Reading the directions ;-)
Apache::Session doesn't do any deep checking, if a top level doesn't value
doesn't change
it may not detect the change.
This is why your workaround works...
The offically recommend workaround (I believe) is to keep a timestamp as a
top level value in the hash...

If I repeatedly write to:

I find that I have to do something like:

to get it to write when the hash is untied. Is there a better way to do this?

I found _my_ error that caused me to send the original message. It was a
perl thingy. Now I've got to get with the Camel book to find out if I
can and how to do what I really wanted to do.

I'm looking for individuals/companies to undertake short duration tightly scoped
development projects in mod_perl, apache, MySQL & LDAP.
Williams Lea Group is building it's intranet using these technologies and
we need a variety of small applications to support various business units
The difficulties in using mod_perl are not an offtopic though.
But I agree about the intelligent part. There are certainly clearer ways of
wording ones frustrations.
