Re^3: Dynamic @INC under mod_perl2 (Apache2 VirtualHost)

Thank you - I am making progress.

I've setup Apache to listen on port 8080 and Included VH config file like so:

<VirtualHost *:8080>
  ServerName test.graq.co.uk

  DocumentRoot /home/graq/html/

  PerlOptions +Parent
  PerlSwitches -I/home/graq/lib -I/home/graq/test-lib

  ScriptAlias /cgi-events /home/graq/cgi-bin
  ErrorLog /var/log/httpd/graq8080_error_log
  CustomLog /var/log/httpd/graq8080_access_log combined

  SetEnv PERL5LIB /home/graq/lib:/home/graq/test-lib

  Include "/etc/httpd/conf/dev8080/graq.conf"
  Include "/etc/httpd/conf/dev8080/other.conf"
</VirtualHost>
[download]

The config file dev8080/graq.conf contains the mod_perl handler definitions:

...
PerlModule GRAQ::Menu;
...
<Location /_menu>
  SetHandler modperl
  PerlOptions +ParseHeaders
  PerlOptions +SetupEnv
  PerlResponseHandler GRAQ::Menu
</Location>
...
[download]

And here is the snippet from GRAQ::Menu

package GRAQ::Menu;

use Apache2::Const;
use Apache2::RequestRec ();
use Apache2::RequestUtil ();

sub handler
{
  my ($r) = @_;
  # my $r = Apache2::RequestUtil->request();
  $r->log_error( 'GRAQ::Menu::handler: START');
...
}
[download]

Which I have as an alternative tried to setup as an Apache2::Filter.

package GRAQ::Menu;

use base qw(Apache2::Filter)
...
sub handler :FilterRequestHandler()
{
  my ($f) = @_;
  my $r = $f->r;
...
}
[download]

UPDATE To clarify further, the dev8080/other.conf config file has this definition:

<IfDefine MODPERL2>
  PerlOptions +GlobalRequest
</IfDefine>
[download]

/UPDATE

But I get this error, despite my best efforts:

Can't locate object method "log_error" via package "Apache2::RequestRe
+c" at /home/graq/lib/GRAQ/Menu.pm line 56.
[download]

This all used to work with liberal smatterings of <Perl> use lib 'home/graq/lib';</Perl> and I'm getting a little lost on exactly what effects my changes have had on the mod_perl environment.

I remember having this error when porting from mp1 to mp2, but can't find any notes on it or hints from the docs on what object I should have in handler...?

Looking through the Apache2::RequestRec documentation shows that `log_error` actually exists on Apache2::Log (which extends `Apache2::RequestRec`). For whatever reason, that extension was not loaded with the new configuration. Adding `use Apache2::Log;` to my modules fixed the problem.
