And I added an entry "PerlModule" and the "PerlHandler". I also was able to build mod_perl2.so. When I do a GET request with handler ON I see that Handler gets called but then the call is not going further to the mod-jk worker. Can someone please tell me what might be going on? I thought OK will continue down the cycle.you have to return DECLINED if you want to let someone else to run hooks like handler.I tried package Apache2::Rules2; #use lib '/home/.mohit/mod_perl-2.0.4/lib'; use Apache2::Const qw(:common); use Apache2::RequestRec (); use Apache2::RequestIO (); sub handler { my $r = shift; #$r->content_type('text/plain'); #$r->print("mod_perl rules!\n"); return DECLINE; # We must return a status to mod_perl } 1; # This is a perl module so we must return true to perl But even though I am using DECLINE it doesn't continue going to mod-jk. Handler just becomes the final destination in this case. How can I write handler such that it continues sending request to mod-jk. In virtual host I added this: PerlModule Apache2::Rules2 SetHandler perl-script PerlHandler Apache2::Rules2 PerlSendHeader OnI now changed it to DECLINED. Now it tries to forward the request but looks like instead of forwarding it to mod-jk worker it is trying to locate document on the same web server. http://ws1/bridge/e?val HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 404 Not Found 16:11:45 ERROR 404: Not Found. In access logs it says e?val not found. It's supposed to forward this request to mod_jk worker. Because bridge is a servlet in jboss app server and apache sends it using mod_jk.Can someone advise why it's not going to mod_jk? How do I debug this?
There is often some confusion about the words handler and hooks. Of all the hooks provided by Apache, the handler responsible for actually providing the content of the response (mod_perl: PerlResponseHandler) behaves in a special way. If returning DECLINED, Apache will not call another such handler but instead return an error message. If a handler really wants to let another handler answer the request (which is not typical), it needs to invoke an internal_redirect. I don't know whether mod_perl supports that.
It is not unlikely that any steps used to prepare the final content generation are better to moved to one or several of the numerous other hooks.
The use of "PerlHandler" in your configuration suggests, that you should read a bit more about how to use mod_perl. That diractive is only there for 1.0 compatibility reasons. If you start out something new, you shouldn't use it.
