mason/mod_perl debugging help needed

[Andrew Waegel <an...@benevolent-tech.com>]

Hello,

Andrew Waegel here, popping over from the HTML::Mason list with a 
request for help. I've reached the limit of my debugging ability and am 
now looking for an experienced Apache/mod_perl/mason developer to help 
me debug a problem I'm having with my system.

Some more details on the problem:
A client of mine has been using Mason for years now, and after a recent 
system upgrade we have an issues with Mason-powered pages 
intermittently causing their apache processes to hang indefinitely. I 
can reproduce the problem easily, and upon closer inspection with 
strace and gdb I can tell that Apache is hanging in the same place 
every time. The problem is, I don't know enough about C/Apache/mod_perl 
coding to go any further with these results.

Can anyone help out? Soon :) ? If interested, please email me a bit 
about yourself, your experience, and your billing rate for short jobs 
like this.

Thanks,
- Andrew

PS if this in an inappropriate forum for such solicitations, please 
accept my apologies and let me know where to look.

Hi Andrew,

Well, where is it?

Also, what versions of various things are you running?

And when you say "hang indefinitely"... what do you mean?
