I'm trying to use a perl filter to redirect user if some conditions are met.
This is the base filter that should redirect everything: 
package My::Filter;
use strict;
use warnings;

use CGI::Cookie ();
use Apache2::RequestRec ();
use APR::Table ();

use Apache2::Const -compile => qw(REDIRECT);

my $location = "http://www.test.com";

sub handler {
    my $r = shift;

    my $cookie = CGI::Cookie->new(-name=> 'mod_perl',
                                    -value => 'awesome');

    $r->err_headers_out->add('Set-Cookie' => $cookie);
    $r->headers_out->set(Location => $location);

    return Apache2::Const::REDIRECT;
}
1;

I'm calling it with 
<Directory "/path/to/test/account/">
PerlOutputFilterHandler My::Filter
</Directory>

No errors, nothing :(
When I visit a page under that test account headers are not even set, I get empty HTTP response.
What I'm doing wrong? Please advice.
