PerlSetVar
Hi all!
I set in httpd.conf variable like: PerlSetVar var test;
How can I get it in the startup.pl script ?

You can't.
Apache2::RequestRec is a per-request variable.
startup.pl/httpd.conf are server configurations.
There is no $r, hence no ApacheRequestRec at that time.
You might want to look into
Apache2::ServerRec
http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/api/Apache2/ServerRec.html
Apache2::ServerUtil
http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/api/Apache2/ServerUtil.html

Personally, I use ENV to set 'production#', 'dev#' id for the machines
the SQL passwords are hardcoded into the app, along with other
traditionally environment variables , in a perl config and are
accessed via something like this:
$server{ $EVN{server_id} }{ $varname }
while there are some disadvantages to this...
i have 1 line in my httpd.conf that includes a httpd.conf for my
modperl app, which I keep in svn along with the app
i only set 1 var in httpd.conf, and don't use that powerful (yet
bastardized integration of 2 things) mod_perl interface to httpd.conf
- its all in the app
and everything is in svn. in a single directory. clustering is as
easy as 'svn co' , oooh!

In httpd.conf:
<Perl>
%MyConfig::DBI_CONNECTION_OPTIONS = (password => 'blah', etc.);
</Perl>
Then just access that variable where you need it.

Well, now I'll try to explain why I have asked such question. I have
startup.pl with connect_on_init dunction.
Also, I want to use Apache::AuthDBI. And I want options for
Apache::DBI->connect(...) to be stored into httpd.conf
or another but the only place.
I think that I could declare vars into httpd.conf and then use it in
startup.pl and Apache::AuthDBI.
Storing connection options such as login and password into
environment vars - not very good idea, I thik :)

But that doesn't help you either.
httpd.conf:
PerlSetEnv var test
startup.pl:
print STDERR "test => $ENV{test}\n"
or you might look at
bash: export var='test' / tcsh: setenv var test
httpd.conf:
PerlPassEnv var

Well, nice advise, but where can I get $r ( Apache2::RequestRec )
variable in startup.pl script ?
In handler script - everything is O.K. But startup.pl!
