Well, I've found something that may allow me to use the Perl debugger, Apache::DB. However now that I'm trying to use it I can't seem to load apache, I get the following error:
[root@slinux bin]# ./httpd -X -D PERLDB
[notice] Apache::DB initialized in child 2257
Syntax Error on line 999 of /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf:

With that Apache dies. The following is lines 983 - 994: 
<IfDefine PERLDB> #Line 983

   <Perl>
      use Apache::DB ();
      Apache::DB->init;
   </Perl>

   <Location />
      PerlFixupHandler Apache::DB
   </Location>

</IfDefine> #Line 994

I'm at a bit of a loss to explain this since I've never corectally set it up before. The code above is essentially a copy-paste from one of the mod_perl docs that talks about debugging.

Thanks for any advice you can give.


My code doesn't have bugs, it just develops random features.
