At least when you have a problem, stop hiding errors by using "use strict; use warnings;"!

mod_perl registry scripts are compiled inside as a sub: 

sub {

#!/usr/bin/perl
use CGI;
my $page = new CGI;
print $page->header();
print "<html><head></head><body>";
print $page;
print "<br>";
test();
print "</body></html>";

sub test{
    print $page;
}

}

Patterns of the form 

sub named_or_anon {
   my $x;
   sub named {
      ... $x ...
   }
}

are bad. Perl even warns you about it. 

$ perl -we'
    sub named_or_anon {
        my $x;
        sub named {
            $x
        }
    }
'
Variable "$x" will not stay shared at -e line 6.

Don't use "global" my variables in registry scripts. Using local our $var instead of my $var should do the trick for "global" variables.
