I am modifying (adding new functions) to already written perl module, So this is not a complete new development. I am using mod_perl 2.0 /Apache 2.2 on Fedora, Looks like code is not written for this but for a older mod_perl version less than 2.0
Error I got was Can't locate object method "user" via package "Apache2::Connection but if I change it to $r->user($user) instead of $r->connection->user($user) this looks ok but it gives further errors on Can't locate object method "header_out" via package "Apache2::RequestRec" in the line $r->header_out->set(Location => $url_new); Is this needs to be changed as well.? This all happens when I comment the line use Apache2::compat; Good thing is make test gives zero errors. How can I preserve existing written old code also make sure make test gives zero errors. How can I find the corresponing mappings for old vs new perl versions. Even though the functionality works in my case make test fails because of the above line Apache2::compat; Thanks Perrin Harkins wrote: > > On Mon, 2007-01-15 at 00:51 -0800, Tracy12 wrote: >> I found out that the reason for failure is the following line >> >> use Apache2::compat; > > You didn't tell us what the error message is when you have that line in. > Regardless, you shouldn't use Apache2::compat for new development.
