Hello my esteemed monks

Has anyone here had serious problems today after the last up2date from Hedhat?

My mod_perl scripts just went crazy. And untill now I can´t figure out what happened. The requests started to be mixed up between users, and the Apache2::compat module stopped doing it's work, leaving my error log full with 'Can't locate Apache/RequestUtil.pm in @INC '.

I do have Apache2::RequestUtil installed, but it is the Apache2::, not the Apache:: it looks for. I have these 5 mod_perl scripts that worked fine for months, and now, without any change, just became pure useless thrash.

My host's support is trying to figure things out, but they're lost too. Has any of you managed to solve this?

Below is the up2date log that probably did the mess today at 5am.

Thanks a lot

André
