Sorry for the confusion.... The code also actually attempts to print out HTML headers ie "<HTML><HEAD> etc" but these DO NOT come through to the webpage -instead, a bunch of special characters are printed out...
Right... because the <HTML> and <HEAD> tags are being (incorrectly) shoved into the Content-type field by apache..
From the command line do: HEAD http://my.web.host.com I bet you'll see Content-Type: <HTML><HEAD> or something close to that.Apache is expecting the first two lines of your output to be a content type header.
I suspect that the reason you're running into this issue is because the original code was never intended to be run as a Apache::Registry script, and that the content type printing is being controlled by a global variable.
i.e. print "Content-type: foo/bar\n\n" if($HEADER_PRINTED == 0); $HEADER_PRINTED = 1;That global variable is never being reset to 0, and thus all requests (except the very first) end up being sent across without a header.
I could be wrong, but I would start grepping for 'Content-type' in the code. Rob
