B<CGI::Carp> - CGI routines for writing to the HTTPD (or other) error log |

=head1 SYNOPSIS |
8 |
|
9 |
use CGI::Carp; |
10 |
|
11 |
croak "We're outta here!"; |
12 |
confess "It was my fault: $!"; |
13 |
carp "It was your fault!"; |
14 |
warn "I'm confused"; |
15 |
die "I'm dying.\n"; |
16 |
|
17 |
use CGI::Carp qw(cluck); |
18 |
cluck "I wouldn't do that if I were you"; |
19 |
|
20 |
use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser); |
21 |
die "Fatal error messages are now sent to browser"; |
22 |
|
23 |
=head1 DESCRIPTION |
24 |
|
25 |
CGI scripts have a nasty habit of leaving warning messages in the error |
26 |
logs that are neither time stamped nor fully identified. Tracking down |
27 |
the script that caused the error is a pain. This fixes that. Replace |
28 |
the usual |
29 |
|
30 |
use Carp; |
31 |
|
32 |
with |
33 |
|
34 |
use CGI::Carp |
35 |
|
36 |
And the standard warn(), die (), croak(), confess() and carp() calls |
37 |
will automagically be replaced with functions that write out nicely |
38 |
time-stamped messages to the HTTP server error log. |
39 |
|
40 |
For example: |
41 |
|
42 |
[Fri Nov 17 21:40:43 1995] test.pl: I'm confused at test.pl line 3. |
43 |
[Fri Nov 17 21:40:43 1995] test.pl: Got an error message: Permission denied. |
44 |
[Fri Nov 17 21:40:43 1995] test.pl: I'm dying. |
45 |
|
46 |
=head1 REDIRECTING ERROR MESSAGES |
47 |
|
48 |
By default, error messages are sent to STDERR. Most HTTPD servers |
49 |
direct STDERR to the server's error log. Some applications may wish |
50 |
to keep private error logs, distinct from the server's error log, or |
51 |
they may wish to direct error messages to STDOUT so that the browser |
52 |
will receive them. |
53 |
|
54 |
The C<carpout()> function is provided for this purpose. Since |
55 |
carpout() is not exported by default, you must import it explicitly by |
56 |
saying |
57 |
|
58 |
use CGI::Carp qw(carpout); |
59 |
|
60 |
The carpout() function requires one argument, which should be a |
61 |
reference to an open filehandle for writing errors. It should be |
62 |
called in a C<BEGIN> block at the top of the CGI application so that |
63 |
compiler errors will be caught. Example: |
64 |
|
65 |
BEGIN { |
66 |
use CGI::Carp qw(carpout); |
67 |
open(LOG, ">>/usr/local/cgi-logs/mycgi-log") or |
68 |
die("Unable to open mycgi-log: $!\n"); |
69 |
carpout(LOG); |
70 |
} |
71 |
|
72 |
carpout() does not handle file locking on the log for you at this point. |
73 |
|
74 |
The real STDERR is not closed -- it is moved to CGI::Carp::SAVEERR. Some |
75 |
servers, when dealing with CGI scripts, close their connection to the |
76 |
browser when the script closes STDOUT and STDERR. CGI::Carp::SAVEERR is there to |
77 |
prevent this from happening prematurely. |
78 |
|
79 |
You can pass filehandles to carpout() in a variety of ways. The "correct" |
80 |
way according to Tom Christiansen is to pass a reference to a filehandle |
81 |
GLOB: |
82 |
|
83 |
carpout(\*LOG); |
84 |
|
85 |
This looks weird to mere mortals however, so the following syntaxes are |
86 |
accepted as well: |
87 |
|
88 |
carpout(LOG); |
89 |
carpout(main::LOG); |
90 |
carpout(main'LOG); |
91 |
carpout(\LOG); |
92 |
carpout(\'main::LOG'); |
93 |
|
94 |
... and so on |
95 |
|
96 |
FileHandle and other objects work as well. |
97 |
|
98 |
Use of carpout() is not great for performance, so it is recommended |
99 |
for debugging purposes or for moderate-use applications. A future |
100 |
version of this module may delay redirecting STDERR until one of the |
101 |
CGI::Carp methods is called to prevent the performance hit. |
102 |
|
103 |
=head1 MAKING PERL ERRORS APPEAR IN THE BROWSER WINDOW |
104 |
|
105 |
If you want to send fatal (die, confess) errors to the browser, ask to |
106 |
import the special "fatalsToBrowser" subroutine: |
107 |
|
108 |
use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser); |
109 |
die "Bad error here"; |
110 |
|
111 |
Fatal errors will now be echoed to the browser as well as to the log. CGI::Carp |
112 |
arranges to send a minimal HTTP header to the browser so that even errors that |
113 |
occur in the early compile phase will be seen. |
114 |
Nonfatal errors will still be directed to the log file only (unless redirected |
115 |
with carpout). |
116 |
|
117 |
=head2 Changing the default message |
118 |
|
119 |
By default, the software error message is followed by a note to |
120 |
contact the Webmaster by e-mail with the time and date of the error. |
121 |
If this message is not to your liking, you can change it using the |
122 |
set_message() routine. This is not imported by default; you should |
123 |
import it on the use() line: |
124 |
|
125 |
use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser set_message); |
126 |
set_message("It's not a bug, it's a feature!"); |
127 |
|
128 |
You may also pass in a code reference in order to create a custom |
129 |
error message. At run time, your code will be called with the text |
130 |
of the error message that caused the script to die. Example: |
131 |
|
132 |
use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser set_message); |
133 |
BEGIN { |
134 |
sub handle_errors { |
135 |
my $msg = shift; |
136 |
print "<h1>Oh gosh</h1>"; |
137 |
print "<p>Got an error: $msg</p>"; |
138 |
} |
139 |
set_message(\&handle_errors); |
140 |
} |
141 |
|
142 |
In order to correctly intercept compile-time errors, you should call |
143 |
set_message() from within a BEGIN{} block. |
144 |
|
145 |
=head1 MAKING WARNINGS APPEAR AS HTML COMMENTS |
146 |
|
147 |
It is now also possible to make non-fatal errors appear as HTML |
148 |
comments embedded in the output of your program. To enable this |
149 |
feature, export the new "warningsToBrowser" subroutine. Since sending |
150 |
warnings to the browser before the HTTP headers have been sent would |
151 |
cause an error, any warnings are stored in an internal buffer until |
152 |
you call the warningsToBrowser() subroutine with a true argument: |
153 |
|
154 |
use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser warningsToBrowser); |
155 |
use CGI qw(:standard); |
156 |
print header(); |
157 |
warningsToBrowser(1); |
158 |
|
159 |
You may also give a false argument to warningsToBrowser() to prevent |
160 |
warnings from being sent to the browser while you are printing some |
161 |
content where HTML comments are not allowed: |
162 |
|
163 |
warningsToBrowser(0); # disable warnings |
164 |
print "<script type=\"text/javascript\"><!--\n"; |
165 |
print_some_javascript_code(); |
166 |
print "//--></script>\n"; |
167 |
warningsToBrowser(1); # re-enable warnings |
168 |
|
169 |
Note: In this respect warningsToBrowser() differs fundamentally from |
170 |
fatalsToBrowser(), which you should never call yourself! |
171 |
|
172 |
=head1 OVERRIDING THE NAME OF THE PROGRAM |
173 |
|
174 |
CGI::Carp includes the name of the program that generated the error or |
175 |
warning in the messages written to the log and the browser window. |
176 |
Sometimes, Perl can get confused about what the actual name of the |
177 |
executed program was. In these cases, you can override the program |
178 |
name that CGI::Carp will use for all messages. |
179 |
|
180 |
The quick way to do that is to tell CGI::Carp the name of the program |
181 |
in its use statement. You can do that by adding |
182 |
"name=cgi_carp_log_name" to your "use" statement. For example: |
183 |
|
184 |
use CGI::Carp qw(name=cgi_carp_log_name); |
185 |
|
186 |
. If you want to change the program name partway through the program, |
187 |
you can use the C<set_progname()> function instead. It is not |
188 |
exported by default, you must import it explicitly by saying |
189 |
|
190 |
use CGI::Carp qw(set_progname); |
191 |
|
192 |
Once you've done that, you can change the logged name of the program |
193 |
at any time by calling |
194 |
|
195 |
set_progname(new_program_name); |
196 |
|
197 |
You can set the program back to the default by calling |
198 |
|
199 |
set_progname(undef); |
200 |
|
201 |
Note that this override doesn't happen until after the program has |
202 |
compiled, so any compile-time errors will still show up with the |
203 |
non-overridden program name |
204 |
|
205 |
=head1 CHANGE LOG |
206 |
|
207 |
1.05 carpout() added and minor corrections by Marc Hedlund |
208 |
<hedlund@best.com> on 11/26/95. |
209 |
|
210 |
1.06 fatalsToBrowser() no longer aborts for fatal errors within |
211 |
eval() statements. |
212 |
|
213 |
1.08 set_message() added and carpout() expanded to allow for FileHandle |
214 |
objects. |
215 |
|
216 |
1.09 set_message() now allows users to pass a code REFERENCE for |
217 |
really custom error messages. croak and carp are now |
218 |
exported by default. Thanks to Gunther Birznieks for the |
219 |
patches. |
220 |
|
221 |
1.10 Patch from Chris Dean (ctdean@cogit.com) to allow |
222 |
module to run correctly under mod_perl. |
223 |
|
224 |
1.11 Changed order of > and < escapes. |
225 |
|
226 |
1.12 Changed die() on line 217 to CORE::die to avoid B<-w> warning. |
227 |
|
228 |
1.13 Added cluck() to make the module orthogonal with Carp. |
229 |
More mod_perl related fixes. |
230 |
|
231 |
1.20 Patch from Ilmari Karonen (perl@itz.pp.sci.fi): Added |
232 |
warningsToBrowser(). Replaced <CODE> tags with <PRE> in |
233 |
fatalsToBrowser() output. |
234 |
|
235 |
1.23 ineval() now checks both $^S and inspects the message for the "eval" pattern |
236 |
(hack alert!) in order to accomodate various combinations of Perl and |
237 |
mod_perl. |
238 |
|
239 |
1.24 Patch from Scott Gifford (sgifford@suspectclass.com): Add support |
240 |
for overriding program name. |
241 |
|
242 |
1.26 Replaced CORE::GLOBAL::die with the evil $SIG{__DIE__} because the |
243 |
former isn't working in some people's hands. There is no such thing |
244 |
as reliable exception handling in Perl. |
245 |
|
246 |
1.27 Replaced tell STDOUT with bytes=tell STDOUT. |
247 |
