Thanks for the tip, pemungkah!
The other problem is how to get the -d:Trace option to work under mod_perl.
Here's how to do it:
Add the following section to httpd.conf:
<Perl>
$Devel::Trace::TRACE = 0;
</Perl>
And start the server like this:
$ PERL5OPT=-d:Trace sudo /etc/init.d/httpd restart
Then in your code you can write:
$Devel::Trace::TRACE = 1;
# some buggy code
$Devel::Trace::TRACE = 0;
Problems:
- Server spits out a mess of trace info before $TRACE is set to 0
- Trace info (and there's a lot of it) goes to the error log, which is hard to manage
I think I'll try making a patch to allow turning off $TRACE via the
command line, and to allow sending the trace info to a different file.
