NAME

Catalyst::Engine::Apache2::MP20 - Catalyst Apache2 mod_perl 2.x Engine

SYNOPSIS

   # Set up your Catalyst app as a mod_perl 2.x application in httpd.conf
   PerlSwitches -I/var/www/MyApp/lib
   
   # Preload your entire application
   PerlModule MyApp
   
   <VirtualHost *>
       ServerName    myapp.hostname.com
       DocumentRoot  /var/www/MyApp/root
       
       <Location />
           SetHandler          modperl
           PerlResponseHandler MyApp
       </Location>
       
       # you can also run your app in any non-root location
       <Location /some/other/path>
           SetHandler          perl-script
           PerlResponseHandler MyApp
       </Location>
       
       # Make sure to let Apache handle your static files
       # (It is not necessary to remove the Static::Simple plugin 
       # in production; Apache will bypass Static::Simple if
       # configured in this way)

       <Location /static>
           SetHandler          default-handler
       </Location>

       # If not running at a root location in a VirtualHost,
       # you'll probably need to set an Alias to the location
       # of your static files, and allow access to this location:

       Alias /myapp/static /filesystem/path/to/MyApp/root/static
       <Directory /filesystem/path/to/MyApp/root/static>
           allow from all
       </Directory>
       <Location /myapp/static>
           SetHandler default-handler
       </Location>

   </VirtualHost>

DESCRIPTION

This is the Catalyst engine specialized for Apache2 mod_perl version 2.x.

ModPerl::Registry

While this method is not recommended, you can also run your Catalyst application via a ModPerl::Registry script.

httpd.conf:

PerlModule ModPerl::Registry
Alias / /var/www/MyApp/script/myapp_registry.pl/

<Directory /var/www/MyApp/script>
    Options +ExecCGI
</Directory>

<Location />
    SetHandler          perl-script
    PerlResponseHandler ModPerl::Registry
</Location>

script/myapp_registry.pl (you will need to create this):

#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;
use MyApp;

MyApp->handle_request( Apache2::RequestUtil->request );
