Hi Ian,
You're right - I did actually copy just one of the iterations I've tried
of apache config.
The parts of httpd.conf that I've added are:
## Load mod_perl
LoadModule perl_module /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_perl.so
PerlModule Apache2::Reload
PerlInitHandler Apache2::Reload
PerlOptions +Parent
PerlSwitches -Mlib=/var/www/includes
<Location />
DirectoryIndex index.pl index.html
AddHandler perl-script .pl
PerlResponseHandler ModPerl::Registry
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks ExecCGI
Require all granted
</Location>
This has the same symptoms however.
In this same configuration, changing the Handler from perl-script to
cgi-script restores the expected behaviour...

Normally I'd expect an actual PerlHandler or similar included, eg
PerlHandler ModPerl::Registry or PerlHandler SomeLib::SomePAckage type
thing...
(this would be as well as the Set/AddHandler line)
Kind regards,

Hi all,
I'm playing around with mod_perl on apache on docker - and now I've
finally got all the module issues sorted, I'm trying to figure out why
when using mod_perl, the output of scripts ends up in the apache logs.
The following configuration works, and the output of shelled scripts
works as expected:
<Location />
DirectoryIndex index.pl <http://index.pl> index.html
AddHandler cgi-script .pl
Options +Indexes +FollowSymLinks +ExecCGI
Require all granted
</Location>
If I change this to use mod_perl, all output from scripts run in web
pages ends up in the apache log:
<Location />
DirectoryIndex index.pl <http://index.pl> index.html
AddHandler perl-script .pl
Options +Indexes +FollowSymLinks +ExecCGI
Require all granted
</Location>
The perl code I'm using in the web page is as follows:
my $cmd = "/bin/stdbuf";
my @args = qw@ -o1 -e1 /usr/bin/speedtest-cli@;
print '<pre class="alert">';
my $pid = open3(0, \*READER, 0, $cmd, @args);
while ( my $output = <READER> ) {
print $output;
}
print "Speed test complete.</pre>";
waitpid $pid,0;
Does anyone have any clues as to why STDOUT would end up in the apache
log and not in the web page being served when using perl-script as the
handler?
