Subject: Embperl::Execute under 2.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; format=flowed

I am trying out Embperl 2.0 again. It appears (at first glance) to work with most of existing code, 
but it will take quite a lot more testing before I commit it to my production box. The big problem 
so far is the startup.pl file. I preload all the html and epl files to maximize shared memory. This 
involves traversing the directory tree, calling this on each file:

Embperl::Execute ({
    inputfile => $filename,
    import => 0,
    path => $path,
    escmode => 0,
    options => 16});

However this produces the same error for every file:

    [14953]ERR:  56: : Unknown Provider epcompile

Apache does appear to complete starting, but I am not sure what state it is in, with these error 
messages. It seems to imply that the code is not being compiled, which obviously would not bode well 
for it being in shared memory.

The documentation for Execute appears to not be present under the new 2.0 docs. Has it changed in 
some way? Am I not supposed to be able to preload modules under 2.0 any more, or is this a 
straightforward bug?

The system is Debian Sarge (stable), Perl is "5.8.4 built for i386-linux-thread-multi" (the one that 
comes with Sarge), Embperl 2.0rc4 (i.e. freshly downloaded & built from source, all tests passed), 
mod_perl 1.29, apache 1.3.33.

Any guidance much appreciated.

Thanks,

-Neil
