The text field below now contains the complete text for your /var/www/foswiki/tools/mod_perl_startup.pl.

#!/usr/bin/perl -w # This script is run once when each mod_perl process starts up. use strict; use ModPerl::RegistryLoader; my $root_dir = '/var/www/foswiki'; my $bin_url = '/foswiki'; my $bin_dir = "$root_dir/bin"; # Set up environment do "$bin_dir/setlib.cfg"; # You may want to add other scripts to this list, but you must ensure they are mod_perl safe. # *auth scripts are automatically added to the list. my @scripts = map { $_.$Foswiki::cfg{ScriptSuffix} } map { ($_, $_.'auth') } qw(attach edit manage rename rest save upload view viewfile); # The registry module will be different (probably ModPerl::Registry) if you are not using the default prefork MPM # Linux users can check using the command: apache2 -V | grep MPM my $registrymodule = 'ModPerl::RegistryPrefork'; my $rl = ModPerl::RegistryLoader->new( package => $registrymodule, ); # Precompile the nominated scripts foreach my $script (@scripts) { if (open(F, '<', "$bin_dir/$script") && <F> =~ m|^\#\!/usr/bin/perl\s|) { $rl->handler("$bin_url/$script", "$bin_dir/$script"); close(F); } } 1;

if you came here from ApacheConfigGenerator then your configuration already contains the lines necessary to load the script. Otherwise you can use the configuration fragment below:

<IfModule mod_perl.c> PerlSwitches -wT PerlRequire "/var/www/foswiki/tools/mod_perl_startup.pl" </IfModule>
