open2 does not work in mod perl

[sajid khan <sa...@gmail.com>]

Hi all

I am able to execute the below program in perl but NOT in mod_perl

$pid = open2(*Reader,*Writer,$test_cmd);
Writer->autoflush();
Reader->autoflush();

print Writer "mypwd\n";
while (<Reader>) {
$output .= $_;
}

In mod perl , whatever I write to Writer using "print Writer " does not get
reached to my program defined in $test_cmd. This works perfectly fine with
only perl but not with mod perl,what might be the reason and any workaround
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks
Sajid
