hello,

I'm working with an older mod_perl system. I would like to bring up another virtual host using modified code. The package and routine names will be the same across the two virtual hosts. There are also some global variables floating around in the code (on both sites) as well.

Here's what I have in the http.conf: 
RewriteRule ^/Something(.*) /path/to/the/main/code.pl

<Directory /path/to/the/main/>
    SetHandler perl-script
    PerlHandler Apache::Registry
    Options ExecCGI
    PerlRequire /path/to/the/main/startup.pl

[download]
in the startup.pl I have added: 
$Apache::Registry::NameWithVirtualHost = 1;

[download]
It looks like not all of the requests are getting prefixed with the virtual host name. I'm having a hard time debugging this but when I force an error (stack trace) I see that some things are listed with the virtual host:
Apache::ROOThost_2ename_2ecom::My::Package::_31_2e0::method::handler

[download]
yet others are not:
My::OtherPackage::MyMethod

[download]
I can take off all of the virtual hosts from the module names by turning this off: 
$Apache::Registry::NameWithVirtualHost = 0;

[download]
Any help with this would be great.

thanks.
