apache->request

Hi all,
  Before I post my question, I would like to say this - "I'm new to mod_perl
and hence bear with my silly 
questions!". I'm using Mac OSX 10.4.8/Apache 1.3 . I want to currently
develop a perl object that I can use for authorization (using AuthCookie). I
tried to deploy the sample code given with AuthCookie-1.3, and I get this
error - 
  
   Can't locate object method "request" via package "Apache"

Now, how do I fix this??? Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Let me clarify what I'm doing. I copied the docs folder in Apache::AuthCookie
and then dropped it in my 'DocumentRoot'. Then copied the sample module and
put in one of the paths of @INC. Tried it, and it worked like a charm except
that when the secured page was accessed, the perl script was rendered as
plain text; So, I thought I will move it to /cgi-bin and oops! now it throws
that error :(

hmmm... no luck still!
BTW, even trying Apache::AuthCookie 3.10 on Apache 1.3/ mod_perl 1.29 also
reports the same problem now!

You don't have to use mod_perl 2 to use the latest Apache-AuthCookie,
but if you choose to, you will have to use the Apache2::AuthCookie
module from the distribution.  The other one is for mod_perl 1.

 Thanks for the tip! 
 I'm now using Apache 2.0.59 / mod_perl 2.0.3 / Apache:AuthCookie 3.10

 However, I now get the error 

  "Can't locate loadable object for module Apache::Constants"

I don't actually see Apache-AuthCookie 1.4 on CPAN or even backpan.
It must be pretty old.  There is a note in version 2.011 which came
out 7 years ago about how to upgrade from 1.4.  I'd suggest you try
something newer.

This problem you're seeing may be a result of long-ago changes in the
mod_perl 1 API, or a bug in the old module that you're using.

Welcome aboard, _spit.

Meaning mod_perl 1.30?

> I tried to deploy the sample code given with AuthCookie-1.3

Which module is this?  There are many things on CPAN with AuthCookie
in their names, but none of them are version 1.3.
