Segmetation Fault problem

["Hughes, Ralph" <RH...@anteon.com>]

Hello!
I've come upon a strange problem with my Apache/mod_perl configuration.
(Apache v 1.3.9  mod_perl 1.21)
When I attempt to preload Perl modules like FileHandle, Apache::DBI, DBI,
etc., the httpd process gets a segmentation fault and core dumps at startup.
I've tried using the PerlModule directive as well
as a PerlRequire and a startup file with the same results.
 
Here's the strange part.  If I start the server first, then modify the
configuration and *restart* it (not a stop and start) the modules load up
and work fine.
 
Anyone seen anything like this before ??   
Any help would be appreciated!
 
Thanks in advance!

Ralph,

This isn't any help, but this describes the exact same problem I'm 
having. Using your experience I was able to get the module to load 
with a HUP.

I wonder is the dir DBI is in doesn't get put into @INC until 
sometime after startup.pl tries to run? I'll have to experiment with 
that.
