Hi Monks

I am messing around creating some kind of basic proxy system using a mod_perl handler. I have some code like this:

package My::Handler;

use strict;
use warnings;
use Apache2::RequestRec ();
use Apache2::RequestIO ();
use Apache2::Const -compile => qw(OK);
use LWP::UserAgent ();

sub handler{
    my ($r) = @_;

    my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new;
    my $resp = $ua->get( $r->unparsed_uri );

    $r->print( $resp->decoded_content );
    return Apache2::Const::OK;
}

and in my apache config:

<Perl>
    use lib "/my/handler/lib";
</Perl>

PerlModule My::Handler
<Location />
    Require all granted
    SetHandler perl-script
    PerlResponseHandler My::Handler
</Location>

[download]

However, when I run it I seem to get

Can't locate HTTP/Config.pm:   /my/handler/lib/HTTP/Config.pm: Permiss
+ion denied at /<perlbrew path>/perl-5.34.0/lib/site_perl/5.34.0/LWP/U
+serAgent.pm line 865.

If I add use HTTP::Config under use LWP::UserAgent at the top, it then complains about another missing module. It seems to be expecting to find these modules in /my/handler/lib, even though when I dump @INC this appears to contain all the perlbrew paths to the perl version (v34.0) I am using as expected. I tried copying verbatim a handler from the mod perl docs but with the same result. I am guessing therefore the problem is something to do with my setup and/or apache setup - but what? Any thoughts/suggestions would be helpful. Thanks!
