Message-Id: <6b5fdf22-97a4-47e6-a33d-75e043647184@73g2000hsx.googlegroups.com>
Hello all,
Just a quick question: am running into difficulty getting module
Apache2::ASP working, but I cannot seem to find a support repository
outside of googling for individual pages or installation hints other
than http://www.devstack.com. Would someone please point me in the
right direction?
Just in case this is common and I have missed it, the actual error
that I get out of my Apache logs is:
Use of uninitialized value $fixed in substitution (s///) at /usr/lib/
perl5/site_perl/5.10.0/Apache2/ASP/Config.pm line 224.
[Mon Sep 22 20:52:47 2008] [error] [client 192.168.1.10] Can't call
method "lib" on unblessed reference at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.10.0/
Apache2/ASP/Config.pm line 63.\n
Something that I tried hours ago made me think that the configuration
file was not being read, but I can no longer reproduce or even
remember what exactly I was doing at the time...
Thanks!

I believe you'll need to save/reopen STDOUT:
open my $target1, '>', 'log1.txt' or die $!;
open(my $oldout, ">&STDOUT")
or die "Can't dup STDOUT: $!";
tee STDOUT, $target1;
print "line one\n";
close STDOUT;
open STDOUT, ">&", $oldout or die "Can't dup \$oldout: $!";
open my $target2, '>', 'log2.txt';
tee STDOUT, $target2;
print "line two\n";
close $target2;

I would consider finding another host. They seem to have things backwards.
If I'm sharing a server with random other people, I want them to be forced
to use -T, not forbidden from it.

Remove the -T.

If it isn't, then I have no idea what is going on. It is probably a
weirdness peculiar to your hosting environment.

What do you mean that your host won't allow you to use Taint mode? Do
you mean they don't allow Perl, or actually don't allow you to use
Taint mode? That seems crazy, are you sure that's the case and there
wasn't some misunderstanding about the question or feature? I can't
imagine anyone in their right mind denying a user from using a switch
that helps keep your site (and by proxy, their service your site runs
on) from being exposed to problems with a potentially insecure portion
of your code? Is your script perhaps set to run in the background,
launching a child process or something? This is a really strange thing
to hear.

Also, and this isn't something I'd usually suggest, if you plan to stay
with a host that (if what you say is true), is truly clueless enough to
not allow Taint to be used, then look here and upload the following:
http://www.cpan.org/modules/by-module/Taint/ and call that in your
script. I still get the impression that whatever tech representative
you spoke with or emailed at your host, likely didn't understand your
question, but if it fails with Taint mode on, be sure it's not your
script that's causing it to fail, and be sure they really don't allow
this to be switched on, because that is very strange.

This course is designed for beginners who wish to learn the basics of
shell
scripting/programming plus introduction to power tools such as awk,
sed,
etc. This course contains examples rather than all the features of
shell.
*Audience for this course*
I assume you have at least working knowledge of Linux i.e. basic
commands
like how to create, copy, remove files/directories etc or how to use
editor
like vi or mcedit and login to your system. But not expects any
programming
language experience. If you have access to Linux, this course will
provide
you an easy-to-follow introduction to shell scripting.
*What's different about this course*
Many other tutorial and books on Linux /Aixshell scripting are either
too
basic, or skips important intermediate steps. But this course,
maintained
the balance between these two. It covers the many real life modern
example
of shell scripting which are almost missed by many other
tutorials/documents/books. The idea is very clear "*do it yourself or
learn
by doing*" i.e. trying things yourself is the best way to learn, so
examples
are presented as complete working shell scripts, which can be typed
in and
executed
*Sessions Organization*
Session 1 to 4 shows most of the useful and important shell
scripting
concepts.
Session 5: introduction to tools & utilities which can be used while
programming the Linux shell smartly.
Session 6 and 7: Is all about expression and expression mostly used
by tools
such as sed and awk. Chapter 8 is loaded with tons of shell
scripting
examples divided into different categories. Chapter 9 gives more
resources
information which can be used while learning the shell scripting
like
information on Linux file system, common Linux command reference and
other
resources.
Session 1 introduces to basic concepts such as what is Linux, where
Linux
can used and continue enplaning the shell, shell script and kernel
etc.
Session 2 shows how to write the shell script and execute them. It
explains
many basic concepts which require writing shell script.
Session 3 is all about making decision in shell scripting as well as
loops
in shell. It explains what expression are, how shell understands the
condition/decisions. It also shows you nesting concept for if and for
loop
statement and debugging of shell script.
Session 4 introduces the many advanced shell scripting concepts such
as
function, user interface, File Descriptors, signal handling,
Multiple
command line arguments etc.
Session 5 introduces to powerful utility programs which can be used
variety
of purpose while programming the shell scripting.
Session 6 and 7 gives more information on patterns, filters,
expressions,
and off course sed and awk.
Session 8 contains lot of example of shell scripting divided into
