This is a problem with the most recent mod_perl. I have solved this
with a hack provided by another list member:

require Apache::RequestUtil;
no warnings ‘redefine’;
my $sub = *Apache::request{CODE};
*Apache::request = sub {
my $r;
eval { $r = $sub->(‘Apache’); };
# warn $@ if $@;
return $r;
};

Place that block in webmux.pl right after the BEGIN block.

Ugly, I hope I can eventually remove it, but it works for now.

The API for mod_perl2 hasn’t stabilized yet and mason needs to be beaten
to behave. Brook has a patch that’s due for application before 3.0.5
that deals for RT. But really, mod_perl2 is still in beta and I don’t
expect it to be consistent from release to release.On Thu, Jul 31, 2003 at 01:22:05PM -0700, Sullivan, Robert (HQP) wrote:
