Hi Alex,

Yes, $r=Apache->request was my another suspect...

Definitely not (from my point of view), unless you want to dig into
Apache->request and fix it. I would prefer to write a customizable
handler (might be pretty generic, but Apache::Filter compatible) in
order to reuse the code of your application from that handler. It would
be a short way to make your application running under the mod_perl, and
further re-engineering through the use of other phases of the request
processing flow will be well prepared.

Good luck!
