Re: Changing Apache configuration for each request

Thank you so much Torston!

I had tried this before, but got this error message...

> Can't locate object method "add_config" via package "Apache2::RequestUtil"

...so I (incorrectly) concluded this function no longer existed and the
documentation was out-of-date. It seems the problem was actually just that I
was using the wrong handler!

Regards

Marcus
