in thread using your own mod_perl modules on hosted sites?

PerlModule Apache::CPH

<Location /CPH>
SetHandler "perl-script"
PerlHandler Apache::CPH
</Location>

This is what i want, but it would mean each time the module is updated
the webserver would have to be restarted.
will web hosting companies allow this?

    A standard shared-hosting provider will not allow mod_perl.
    You can completely control the Apache server with mod_perl.
    You are unlikely to get permission to restart Apache.
    Those hosts which allow mod_perl in a shared environment usually want to vet your code first, thise may be an onerous process if your code is not clear and simple.
