Re: Problem with Apache 2.2.2 / modperl 2.0.2 and Apache2::SOAP

["Georg Grabler" <suppressed>]

Well, i kicked out the old code which seemed to be buggy of Apache2::SOAP, and used the codepiece you gave me to determine which modperl version i'm using.

What shall i say, except thank you very much, Tom. It works perfectly now, and all the day searching for a mistake i did in my server configuration now ended up in a as it seems a bugfix for a bug in a module.

Thank you for your time, and the help you provided me, and hopefully others, when they're reading the archives.

Do you have mp1 and mp2 installed in the same perl-tree.

If yes then it's clear why you always get to
"$self->{'MOD_PERL_VERSION'} = 1;". To distinguish if running in mp1 or
mp2 a module should use totally different code.

if (exists $ENV{MOD_PERL_API_VERSION} && $ENV{MOD_PERL_API_VERSION} == 2) {
require Apache2::Response;
require Apache2::RequestRec;
require Apache2::RequestUtil;
require Apache2::RequestIO;
// ...
} else {
require Apache;
// ...
}

I'd advice the Apache2::SOAP maintainer that he will get into trouble
when mp1 and mp2 are installed in the same tree.
