Question

I have an odd problem: If I enable mod_perl in .htaccess by using:

  SetHandler perl-script
  PerlHandler Apache::Registry
  Options ExecCGI
  PerlSendHeader On
  allow from all

it will sometimes work, mostly not. Any page in twiki being viewed will show 1 in 7 tries or so. The other 6, apache will report an internal browser error in the browser. If you check its logfile, you'll see, that it reports an Undefined subroutine &Apache::Registry::handler called. error.

I have heard a number of people comment that the Registry method of enabling mod_perl has problems. Drop in to IRC, and look for Wohali/JoanTouzet - she has solved these problems.

Further on this, see Bugs:Item766. You need to write a tartup.pl for mod_perl.
