Koha 3.0 and mod_perl
Hello, I am planning to run Koha 3.0 with the mod_perl Apache 2 module (using the PerlRunPrefork response handler). My question : has someone noticed problems with such a configuration ? (On wiki.koha.org , there was a page about Koha and mod_perl but I don't find it anymore on the Wiki of koha-community.org.) Best regards, Alex

I wouldn't be suprised if there were some problems with the librarian interface. 3.4 is going to be a performance based release, one of the goals is to make sure the code is mod_perl safe. (As well as potentially other persistant code mechanisms). Chris

Even with PerlRunPrefork response handler ? I don't find documentation regarding differences between PerlRunPrefork and Registry handlers, but it seems to me that PerlRunPrefork is more "flexible" than Registry. Regards, Alex

Yep, it is certainly more flexible, but there is quite a few instances in Koha where we don't clean up as well as we should. With CGI it doesn't matter so match, but with persistance my fear would be ram leakage. So i'd want to keep an eye on the apache child processes and make sure they don't grow out of control.
