FAQ

Q: Why don't my apps show up?

A: On a new install of Solstice, there's a few things to check to ensure that applications will show up properly.

1. Make sure Solstice is configured properly. When you visit the root url for Solstice, you should see the Welcome to Solstice screen, without a link to the installer.
2. Make sure the application has an entry in the Application table. The namespace *must* match the Perl namespace of your application.
3. Make sure that @INC has everything you need. If you see an error like this:

Could not load application class: Can't locate Majere/Application.pm in @INC

you may need to fully stop and start Apache. Solstice includes the library paths from all applications on startup, and sometimes a graceful restart is not sufficient.

Q: What versions of mod_perl/apache does Solstice support?

A: Solstice has an abstraction layer around mod_perl that allows it to work with either version (1.3/2) of Apache smoothly. Both versions have been battle tested in a production environment.
