PerlAuthenHandler does not show login pop up	Can't Post

Hi,

I configured it this way:

in httpd.cfg:

Alias /requestx /home/webapp/myapp/request
<Location /requestx >
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi
AddHandler cgi-script .pl
AllowOverride All
Options FollowSymLinks ExecCGI
DirectoryIndex index.html
AuthName "Myapp Authentication (1)"
AuthType Basic
PerlAuthenHandler MyAuth
require valid-user
</Location>

and in MyAuth.pm file, in package MyAuth I put

...

sub handler {

my $cgi=new CGI;

# Password and login from request
my $r =shift;
my ($res,$sent_pw) = $r->get_basic_auth_pw;

...

but the pop up with basic authentication does not show and I get:

Can't locate object method "get_basic_auth_pw" via package "Apache2::RequestRec

Regards,
Adrian

I did this as test:
I commented out the PerlAuthenHandler MyAuth in httpd.cfg file
=>
#PerlAuthenHandler MyAuth

and the basic authentication was fired but of course then the perl handler is not used.
