[Dancer-users] setting up an alias in Apache2 fails when using Plack::Handler::Apache2

[P Kishor]

This is driving me nuts... not really a Dancer question, but since my
only experience with PSGI is via Dancer, here goes. I have the
following set-up with Apache2 vhost


<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName foo.org
    ServerAlias www.foo.org
    DocumentRoot "/Users/punkish/Sites/foo"
    Alias /lib "/Users/punkish/Sites/lib"

    <Directory "/Users/punkish/Sites/foo">
        AllowOverride None
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from all
    </Directory>

    <Directory "/Users/punkish/Sites/lib">
        AllowOverride None
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from all
    </Directory>

    <Location />
        SetHandler perl-script
        PerlHandler Plack::Handler::Apache2
        PerlSetVar psgi_app /Users/punkish/Sites/foo/app.psgi
    </Location>

    ErrorLog "/Users/punkish/Logs/foo.org-error_log"
    CustomLog "/Users/punkish/Logs/foo.org-access_log" common
</VirtualHost>


Everything works well, except for the /lib alias. If I have the
Location handler calling the app via Plack::Handler::Apache2,
http://foo.org/lib or http://foo.org/lib/ both throw a 404.
