I suspect that finding a way to run your own is going to be easier than inventing a new way to debug perl. Can you tell us anything about the barriers to running your own server? We might be able to suggest something. > Is there a way that I can run an interactive debug session without > running http -x? You need a console attached, so I don't think so. You could look at what others have done with trying to debug forked programs, but daemons like apache try pretty hard to detach from everything. > I'm willing to invest time into adding the required functionality into > mod_perl/Apache::DB if necessary, so any pointers into why and how, are > greatly appreciated. If I were going to try to do this, I'd probably start with http://search.cpan.org/dist/Devel-ebug/ and see if it can be hacked to work as a remote debugger for mod_perl. - Perrin
