I saw a posting by alex@porous.de in March this year - regarding the
error message:
/usr/local/apache2/bin/apachectl start
[Tue May 13 21:18:29 2003] [error] Global $r object is not available.
Set:

in httpd.conf at
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/HTML/Mason/ApacheHandler.pm line
567.
Compilation failed in require at (eval 4) line 1.
[Tue May 13 21:18:29 2003] [error] Can’t load Perl file:
/opt/rt3/bin/webmux.pl for server XXXXXX.XXXXX.edu.au:0, exiting…
this is a change in behaviour between Mod_Perl 1.99_08 and 1.99_09
(I’ve been using 1.99_07). I don’t know whether this has gone away in
later versions of HTML::Mason (I’m still using 1.17 rather than 1.20)
but I needed to add the following to /opt/rt3/bin/webmux.pl to get
everything working. I don’t know what changes need to be made so this
can be more universally applied to Mod_Perl 1 and Mod_Perl 2 instances.
