Sessions
Hi All,
I have asked similar questions to this before, but I am not getting the
desired behaviour out of my Embperl (2.0b3) sessions.
I have written my own PerlHandler for authorisation which uses Embperl, but
regardless of using it, each time I load a page, a new session object gets
written!
I have in my Apache config:
PerlSetEnv EMBPERL_OPTIONS 25104
PerlSetEnv EMBPERL_COOKIE_PATH /
PerlSetEnv EMBPERL_SESSION_CLASSES = "File Null" ;
PerlSetEnv EMBPERL_SESSION_ARGS = "/tmp" ;
With this, I just have to continually reload my site's index page and watch
/tmp filling up with session files.
The documentation suggests that for modules that don't directly call
HTML::Embperl::Execute, the following calls should be made within the
module:
$udat = HTML::Embperl::Req::SetupSession($req_rec);
HTML::Embperl::Req::SetSessionCookie;
HTML::Embperl::Req::CleanupSession;
I have done all of this to no avail. Again, this fails for a 'Normal'
Embperl (ie with standard mod_auth).
I am also at a loss to stand-alone debug this as the SetSessionCookie does
require an Apache::request object. For example, the following stub also
exhibits exactly my problem, but I am unsure what is/should be happening as
there isn't a consistent $r being passed around and I expect the MD5
mangling is giving me the randomness for not detecting the 'original'
cookie:
BEGIN
{
$ENV{EMBPERL_SESSION_CLASSES} = "File Null" ;
$ENV{EMBPERL_SESSION_ARGS} = "/tmp" ;
} ;
use HTML::Embperl;
use Data::Dumper;
my $udat = HTML::Embperl::Req::SetupSession;
print '%udat is ', Dumper $udat, "\n";
#HTML::Embperl::Req::SetSessionCookie;
HTML::Embperl::Req::CleanupSession;
I'd like to know if I'm doing something obviously wrong, and/or if anyone
has a Store/Lock combination that does work consistently.
Cheer, Alan

Hi,
Your setup and code seems to be ok. Before we try to debug it further please
try to upgrade to Embperl 2.0b4 and Apache::SessionX 2.00b3, which I just
released.
Gerald
