Hi please anyone give the solution for this. I have create simple program AddFilterDyn.pm as follows

    use strict;
    use warnings;

    my $r = shift;
    $r->content_type('text/plain');
    print("Now is: " . scalar(localtime) . "\n");

It working properly when its call direct. But i have added a filters in httpd.conf file like

SetHandler modeperl
PerlResponseHandler Apache2::AddFilterDyn

Your first script can't work when called as a program: `> perl -w tmp.pl Can't call method "content_type" on an undefined value at tmp.pl line +5.` [download] So whatever you're calling "direct" is a different program from what you're calling through mod_perl. Maybe your instance of `modeperl` is something different?	[reply] [d/l]

Hi Finally i found the solution. in .htaccess file need to add this. `SetHandler perl-script PerlOptions +MergeHandlers PerlResponseHandler Apache2::AddFilterDyn` [download] Actually I already have one PerlResponseHandler ModPerl::Registry So, my AddFilterDyn filter is not working proper. PerlOptions +MergeHandlers gives the solution for it. Thanks all.	[reply] [d/l]
