in thread Apache2::Cookie troubles... sanity check needed on auth/sess handling

Based on the recipe, I updated the following to the login page

if ($res->{res}) { my $MAC = Digest::SHA1::sha1_hex($ARGS{username}, "Get the S1gnal!") +; my $cookie = Apache2::Cookie->new ( $r, -name => 'user_login', -value => { user_id => $ARGS{username}, MAC => $MAC }, -path => '/', -domain => 'ruth.dobson.net', -expires => '+1M', ); $r->err_headers_out->add('Set-Cookie' => $cookie); }

It didn't change any thing. is there any way to, if I stop before the redirect, to check and see what whas set or check someplace to see what is happening when I submit the cookie? I'm not sure how to go about debugging this.

    $r->err_headers_out->add('Set-Cookie' => $cookie->as_string);
    To debug cookie problems, use a browser that shows the headers (lwp-request, Firefox with LiveHTTPHeaders, a logging proxy).
