In running Apache 2 and mod_perl 2, I'm trying to use a web browser to transfer files to the server using Apache::Request using $r-upload(). I'm trying to be lazy and use what ever is existing with Debian Sarge installs. (I've seen the link for How can I get started with a file upload script?) but it doesn't use the Apache 2/MP2/Mason framework. In cruising the 'net, it appears that libapreq2, which supplies this function, is imcomplete, buggy, or whatever. Ie, the Apache log file gives me program termination errors whenever starting the library.

This function is used in the shared/manipUpload.comp from the download at http://mason-cm.itassistance.biz. This package seems to work in Apache 1.3, and the upload is about the only thing not working in Apache 2, MP 2, and Mason.

Anybody have updates on Apache 2.0, MP 2, and Apache::Request status?

Thanx.

Ray.
