Hi,

I'm trying to port a system to mod_perl. Basically, I've got a 'global.pl' script that I require() from my other scripts to load functionality such as cookies, DB connections, etc. This is an extract of my global.pl file:

#!/usr/bin/perl

use DBI;
use CGI;
use Image::Size;

sub env() {

$query = $ENV{'QUERY_STRING'};

$cookie = $ENV{'HTTP_COOKIE'};
($cookiename,$cookievalues) = split(/=/,$cookie);
($cookietype,$cookieuser) = split(/\&/,$cookievalues);

$imgpath = "/home/e-smith/files/ibays/Primary/html/departments";
$imgpathweb = "/departments";

}

sub form_read() {

$q = new CGI;
%fr = (); foreach ($q->param()) { $fr{$_} = $q->param($_); }

}

sub mysql_connect() {

$dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:mysql:departments","user","passwd") or die "S
+QL Connection Error.";

}
[download]

So then, from my CGI scripts I can do the following:

#!/usr/bin/perl

require '../global/global.pl';

&env();

&mysql_connect();

$sth = $dbh->prepare("select label,notes from departments where depart
+ment='$query'");
$sth->execute;
($departmentlabel,$departmentnotes) = $sth->fetchrow_array;
$sth->finish;

$dbh->disconnect;

&form_read();
print $fr{aformfield};
[download]

This all runs just fine as plain CGI, but starts crashing under Apache::Registry. Every a couple of reloads, I get an Internal Server Error, and in Apache's error log:

Undefined subroutine &Apache::ROOTdepartments::mod_2dperl::site::department_2epl::env ....

I tried searching the web for solutions, but the information I found is a little confusing.

Anyone knows what should be changed within the code above so that it runs correctly with Apache::Registry?

Any help is really appreciated.

Thanks,
Ralph
