Apache::Upload ?
howdy.
one of the requirement of the system that I'm developing, is the ability
for a user to upload a document from their local system and have it stored
in a database (mysql in this case).. I have traditionally used the file
upload features of CGI.pm for this type of action, but as I am in a dedicated
mod_perl environment, I wanted to see if there was a more 'mod_perl way'
to do this.
I though I found what I was looking for on
http://perl.apache.org/src/apache-modlist.html under the "* Misc" heading..
"Upload amcO File upload class APML"
and according to the notes on that page..
"Modules listed with the APML as is contact are part of the mod_perl
distribution package."
OK.. so it's standard with the mod_perl dist. But is it really? I can not
find *any* reference to it in my perl install, which has mod_perl 1.24
installed. perldoc turns up nothing..
> [backplate@freak backplate]$ perldoc Apache::Upload
> No documentation found for "Apache::Upload".
and I don't see an 'Upload.pm' anywhere..
can anyone point me in the right direction? I'm running Apache/1.3.12 (Unix)
mod_perl/1.24 compiled with perl5.6.0 .. basicly, I'm looking for
documentation on usage..
Thanks in advance!

I can answer this one myself.. I was doing something stupid.. I missed
the "perl -MCPAN -e 'install Bundle::Apache'" step.. sorry to spam the
list..
even more humbled..

Thanks for the pointer.. the only hitch I am running into is:
<embarrassed expression>
when I do a 'perldoc Apache::Request' on my system, I get our friendly
No documentation found for "Apache::Request".
I *know* I am using the perldoc for the version of perl that has
mod_perl installed.. if I do 'perldoc Apache' .. I get the docs..
this is consitant in two mod_perl installs on two seperate systems..
given, I installed them both.. so I'm thinking that I errored in the
install and some docs didn't get installed.. anybody ever have similar
issues with the docs?
I've been developing mod_perl dependent code in this particular env
for several weeks and everything has been working thus far.. so I
belive the install is complete..
am I just dropping the ball and doing something stupid?
</embarrassed expression>
Thanks! Your reciently humbled mod_perl hacker..

Take a look at Apache::Request which is what you want. The documentation
for Apache::Upload is contained in the 'perldoc Apache::Request' .
Hope this helps
