[mp2] Problems with Apache::Request
I've been having problems with the Apache::Request module (from
libapreq2) and mod_perl2 for a while now and I've not come up with a
decent solution. I am using the Debian packages but I didn't get a
response from the maintainer so I hope someone here can enlighten me.
This is with libapreq2-2.04_03-dev and mod_perl2 1.999.21-1 but I've
had similar problems with earlier versions.
I have a very simple mod_perl handler:
package Jadevine::Hello;
use Apache2;
use Apache::RequestRec ();
use Apache::RequestIO ();
use Apache::Request ();
use Apache::Const -compile => qw(OK);
sub handler {
my $r = shift;
$r->content_type('text/plain');
print "mod_perl 2.0 rocks!\n";
return Apache::OK;
}
1;
This is loaded in the Apache config with:
<Location /Hello>
SetHandler perl-script
PerlResponseHandler Jadevine::Hello
</Location>
If I remove the "use Apache::Request" line everything works
fine. Leaving it there, or actually trying to use the methods provided
by the module give the error:
[error] [client 127.0.0.1] failed to resolve handler `Jadevine::Hello': Apache::Request: httpd must load mod_apreq.so first at /usr/lib/perl5/Apache2/Apache/Request.pm line 31.\nCompilation failed in require at /usr/local/lib/site_perl/Jadevine/Hello.pm line 5.\nBEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/local/lib/site_perl/Jadevine/Hello.pm line 5.\nCompilation failed in require at (eval 3) line 3.\n
I have tried putting the "use" statements in every order imaginable
without any joy so I'm not sure what the error is trying to get me to
do to correct the problem.
I can see where the error comes from in the Apache::Request code:
my $env = __PACKAGE__->env || '';
if ($mod_perl::VERSION > 1.99) {
die __PACKAGE__ . ": httpd must load mod_apreq.so first"
if $env ne "Apache::RequestRec";
}
For the record $env contains 'APR::Pool', not sure if this is what
should be there or not.
Any help would be much appreciated, thanks in advance,

It's a server-config issue. You need to add a
LoadModule apreq_module modules/mod_apreq.so
where "modules/mod_apreq.so" is the actual path to
mod_apreq.so on your box. I don't know how debian
has broken up our tarball, so you may need to install
some other package that provides mod_apreq.so.
I should point out that apreq-dev@ is in the process of
releasing a newer version, and the module name has
changed to "mod_apreq2.so". So you'll probably have to
deal with this problem again once debian picks up 2.05-dev.

Let me see if I can answer this one.
Your sample code does not use Apache::Request at all. by the way, in the
latest release of modperl RC5, Apache::Request is now renamed to
Apache2::Request. You probably can guess why.
If you wish to use the Apache::Request object, you need to first load
the module in httpd.conf. It should look like this:
LoadModule apreq_module bin/mod_apreq.so
If you choose to upgrade to the latest modperl, use this:
LoadModule apreq_module bin/mod_apreq2.so
Note that the path is bin/mod...Change it to modules/mod_apreq.so if
that is where the .so file is.
As usual, reload Apache to once you have the line in.

Ah, brilliant, thanks a lot, I was wondering if I was missing
something obvious. I guess I was just expecting the module to work the
way it did in mod_perl1.
For the record, in Debian a file is provided to make the Apache2
config very simple: /etc/apache2/mods-available/apreq.load, I just
needed to symlink this into /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/, restart
Apache2 and it all works.

try adding
LoadModule apreq_module modules/mod_apreq.so
in your httpd.conf.

I'd get upgraded to MP2 1999.22 if I were you. Stas told me I should
as things changed between your version and it, this whole use Apache2
thing has gone:
http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/rename.html
I figured I'd have to do it eventually and things are now running smoother.
of course, if you can't you can't.
