where x.xx are the version numbers as usual. You want the Perl modules from the mod_perl package to be installed under /home/stas/lib/perl5 and the Apache

The simplest solution is to ignore your dead children. Just add this line before the fork() call: {CHLD} = 'IGNORE'; When you set the CHLD (SIGCHLD in C)

Well, you're right. But I promise you that your task would be quite complicated and time consuming if your code has some thousands of lines. In addition,

So the simplest way is to freeing the parent process is to close all three STD* streams if we don't need them and untie the Apache socket. In addition you

First you might wonder, why in the world will someone need to define an inner subroutine? Well, for example to reduce some of Perl's script startup
