I asked the below question in apache user group as well, but with no answers

We have 2 location directives, one for all the requests ( ...
) and one for specific url /someurl>. We declare some variables using PerlSetVar inside those and read
from the perl scripts.

In Apache 1.3 , I am able to read the variable(decl using PerlSetVar )
inside , however in Apache 2.0, I am not able to read the
variable. Has the Location directive usage changed in apache 2.0 ?, Any help
is appreciated

Thanks

What version of modperl and perl are you using, and what OS are you
using? IIRC the location directive usage has not changed. Are you
saying that in 2.0 PerlSetVar works properly for you in ,
but not ? If you could submit a snippet of your conf
that would help in resolving you issue.

Fred, below is sample configuration used


SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler Apache::Hello
PerlSetVar somevar 50


Regarding your below question, the answer is yes

Please let me know if I am overlooking or missing anything, I am not able to
read the "somevar" from the handler in apache 2

Thanks

I'm almost sure this works correctly (but I could be wrong). Can you look at t/response/TestModperl/setupenv.pm
and see if your case is covered. I believe it is.
