in reply to Using mod_perl on windows

Sorry, did'nt realise it was XML.

What I meant to say is when I do this

#!perl -w use Apache;
use Apache::Request;
use Apache::Cookie;
my $r = Apache::Request -> new(shift);

[download]

it does this in the apache errorlog

Can't locate object method "new" via package "Apache::Request" (perhaps you forgot to load "Apache::Request"?) at c:\apache\cgi-bin\ap.pl line 7.

    Stating the obvious, but is Apache::Request available to you? Is it in the dir where it's expected to be? See what's in @INC, and/or put 'use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser);' before your call to use it.

      Hi, it should be. Request.pm is in c:\Perl\site\Apache\lib and @INC is if printed staright from the browser c:/Perl/libc:/Perl/site/lib.

      If I goto CPAN and install Apache::Request it states Apache::Request already installed.

        Well there you go.

        @INC does not contain "c:\Perl\site\Apache\lib". push() it in there or do the 'use lib c:\Perl\site\Apache\lib' thing.
