perl script not reloading

[Michael Grant <mg...@grant.org>]

It seems that as I work on my script, Apache doesn't reload it when
the script changes on disk.  

It seems like it's something that I did because it used to.  Is there
some common well known thing or set of things one can screw up to make 
this happen?

(if so, it should be documented in the mod_perl_traps man page).

Are you using Apache::Registry?  It only reloads the main file, not any 
modules you might be using.  For that, you need to use Apache::Reload or 
Apache::StatINC (as Nigel pointed out).

It's all documented here:
http://perl.apache.org/docs/1.0/guide/

I'd recommend a more flexible and efficient module Apache::Reload

Hi Michael,
	
	Add the following to httpd.conf:

# Stat the modules so changes don't require the server
# to be restarted
PerlInitHandler Apache::StatINC

	This module does a file stat on your scripts and reloads if there 
has been a change.
