Hello,

I am trying to get mod_perl2 running a debian 3 box. Naturally I have Apach2 and Mod_Perl2 packages installed. The problem is my test handler cannot find any of the Apache2 or ModPerl libs in @INC.

My Handler:

package CEAS4;

use strict;
use warnings;

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

sub handler {
    my $r = shift;
    
    print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
    print "mod_perl 2.0 rocks!\n";
    
    return Apache2::Const::OK;
}

1;

My error message:

Where things get really silly is my list of files in /usr/lib/perl5:

Using Apache2::Apache:: instead of just Apache2:: doesn't work because it cannot find ModPerl::

So, I thought that /usr/lib/perl5/Apache2 should have been in @INC, but then the namespace for everything would just be Apache:: not Apache2::

What am I doing wrong here?

($$<<$$=>$$<=>$$<=$$>>$$) always returns 1. :-)
