Hi:
I was just reading through various posts, and read How to add a sub that can show forum load time? ... in which Alex demonstrates a method to double check that Forum is running under mod_perl. As my forum load times were closer to the 4 seconds (like in NOT mod_perl) than the mod_perl times of under a second, I decided to ryun Alex's test. Sure enough, I got:CGI-Perl/1.1
as a response, which indicates Forum is NOT under mod_perl. I had always thought it was, as when I start the server, I always see Links load, and then forum load.
Here is what I have. In <LOCATION /Links>, I have a call to startup.pl, which reads:
use lib '/path/to/Links/admin';
use Links::mod_perl;
use lib '/path/to/forum/admin';
use GForum::mod_perl;
1; #return true value
Links and Forum are inbstalled in two DIFFERENT Virtual Hosts, down two completely different paths (one is www.bcdb.com. the other forum.bcdb.com)
So I tried an experiment. I made TWO starup.pl's, and put the forum into one (only!) and the Links into the other (only!)
The I called the links startup.pl from <LOCATION /Links> in the Links VH container.... and the forum startup.pl from <LOCATION /Forum> in the Forum VH container. Syntax checked fine, so I restarted the server, and all looks good!
I see a noticable improvement in speed at Forum. I would definitely say it is closer to the 1 sec than 4 sec, as it should be under mod_perl.
But then I ran Alex's check again, and I still see CGI-Perl/1.1 as the result!
From Environment in Links:
Perl Version: 5.008
Links SQL Version: 2.1.2
DBI.pm Version: 1.35
Persistant Env: mod_perl (1) SpeedyCGI (0)
Mod Perl Version: 1.27
From Environment in Forum:
Perl Version: v5.8.0
Gossamer Forum Version: 1.1.8
GForum.pm version: 1.118
GT::SQL Version: 1.099
GT::Template Version: 2.088
DBI.pm Version: 1.35
mod_perl Version: 1.27
So, am I under mod_perl now? If not, any suggestions on how to get this all to work together?
Thanks!
