Hi,
I am running mod_perl/2.0.4 on Linux , I keep getting the subroutine
redefined warnings. Perlrun reloads the cgi on each request so why do
I keep getting these warnings ? Is there any other way to avoid this
other than no warnings qw/redefine/ in my scripts. Am I missing
something here ?.

Here is a minimal script I tested with

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
print "Content-type:text/html \n\n";

test();
test();


sub test {
print " in test \n";
}

and here is my httpd.conf

PerlModule ModPerl::PerlRun
<Location /cgi-bin>
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler ModPerl::PerlRun
PerlSetVar ReloadAll Off

PerlResponseHandler +ModPerl::PerlRun
PerlOptions +ParseHeaders
PerlSendHeader On
Options +ExecCGI
</Location>
PerlRequire "/opt/nms/www/cgi-bin/startup.pl"
# I modify [at] INC in startup.pl and do not load any modules

Error in the error_log
Subroutine test redefined at /opt/nms/www/cgi-bin/test1.pl line 22.
Subroutine test redefined at /opt/nms/www/cgi-bin/test1.pl line 10.

Thanks,
Kiran

This error occurs when you have two subroutines with the same name.

Hi Mike,
Thanks for your reply, If you check my script there is no other
subroutine with the same name and I do not import any modules , I
renamed the subroutine to foo and I still get the same warnings.


Thanks,
Kiran

There's an old thread from someone else reporting this, though it
doesn't have any sort of resolution.

Theoretically, while running under PerlRun that shouldn't happen.
