Running Demo ASP Problem?
I'm just getting up to speed on Apache2 & Apache::ASP (2.57) and I'm still
getting errors when attempting to run the Bookmarks demo. The /asp/eg
examples are running correctly, so I believe that I am dealing with an app
conf issue of some sort.

First, this is the version of the various components that I am playing with:

Apache/2.0.49 (Win32) mod_perl/1.99_14 Perl/v5.8.3 Server at LocalHost Port
80

When I browse to the URL: http://localhost/asp/demo, I get the following
error returned.

Errors Output
errors compiling global.asa: Can't locate object method "dir_config" via
package
"Apache" at E:/Apache2/htdocs/asp/Demo//./global.asa line 15. eval 'E) ||
die("can\'t create table $DBI::errstr"); ; } $Db->do("select * from
bookmarks")
|| die("can\'t do select against bookmarks: $DBI::errstr"); sub
Script_OnStart
{ $Basename = basename($0); $Title = $Name.\' / \'.$Titles{$Basename};
$Response->Include(\'header.inc\');

Adding either of the statements, use Apache::RequestUtil () or use
Apache::ServerUtil ()
To the Global.asa file didn't resolve the issue.

Any idea on what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks, Craig

That is great news that the /asp/eg examples are working! That is really
the test to get working. The bookmarks examples I do not keep up to date
so well, but will look into why they might not be working, which I think
is probably an issue running under mod_perl 2. Hopefully I'll have a fix
for the bookmarks soon.

Regards,

Josh

It probably is something to do with mod_perl 2 - the
original error related to not being able to find the
dir_config method, which in mod_perl 2:

$ perl -MApache2 -MModPerl::MethodLookup -e print_method dir_config
There is more than one class with method 'dir_config'
try one of:
use Apache::RequestUtil ();
use Apache::ServerUtil ();

requires loading one of the above modules, whichever is
appropriate.
