I'm working on building a new mod_perl/Mason based website. I have a bunch of 
old Perl CGI scripts that I'm moving over from the old version of the site. The 
first time I call them, I get this error:

Can't call method "filename" on an undefined value at 
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0/i686-linux/Apache/PerlRun.pm line 40.

It works find when I hit refresh (and any other time after that). It does this 
for every new script I put in cgi-bin. The definition for the VirtualHost is:

<VirtualHost *> 
ServerName domain
ServerAdmin webmaster@domain
DocumentRoot /var/www/dev.domain/htdocs
PerlSetVar MasondataDir /etc/apache/dev.domain/
PerlModule Skyline

ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /var/www/dev.domain/cgi-bin/

<Directory /var/www/dev.domain/htdocs> 
Options -Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory> 

<Directory /var/www/dev.domain/cgi-bin> 
     AllowOverride All
     Options ExecCGI FollowSymlinks
     Order allow,deny
     Allow from all
</Directory> 
</VirtualHost> 

I also have the following as a global declaration for all of my VirtualHosts:

     <Location /cgi-bin/*.pl> 
         SetHandler perl-script
         PerlHandler Apache::PerlRun
         Options -Indexes ExecCGI FollowSymLinks
         PerlSendHeader On
     </Location> 

I am running Apache 1.3.29 with mod_perl 1.27 on Gentoo Linux. Does anyone have 
any idea why it is doing this?
