You should be able to use $Apache::Server::Starting and $Apache::Server::ReStarting for this.

That's what you want, unless you are in development. Is this mod_perl 2 that you're using? If it is, you can use the server object instead of the request object, and avoid the whole issue of checking for startup. For other reasons to avoid CGI::Carp, see http://perl.apache.org/docs/general/perl_reference/perl_reference.html#Exception_Handling_for_mod_perl - Perrin -- Report problems: http://perl.apache.org/bugs/ Mail list info: http://perl.apache.org/maillist/modperl.html List etiquette: http://perl.apache.org/maillist/email-etiquette.html
