Apologies -- my configuration is: Apache 2.0.47 + mod_perl 1.99_10 Solaris 9 > Guessing that you are using mod_perl 2, it's indeed a change in Apache, which > now parses httpd.conf even when it stops the server.

So it doesn't bother you that your <Perl> > sections are run on the second time, but only on the third time? Correct - It's not really critical, but I was wondering whether there was some variable set during the parsing operation that indicated what was happening. For instance, the <Perl > section sets up some proxy cache entries with disk cache enabled, and I check to see that the cache directory exists, creating it if it doesn't already exist. I don't want to create directories on shutdown if I can avoid it... > Also remember that <Perl> sections are designed for adding httpd.conf > directives on the fly from perl, not really for running unrelated perl code at > the startup, which should be done in startup.pl. Understood -- I do use startup.pl for those unrelated activities... -- ============================================================ C. Omand - CA, USA
