I have installed the libhtml-embperl-perl package, and I'm trying to get some perl commands within [+ brackets +] in html files to be processed (first as cgi, then perhaps using mod-perl). After simply installing the package, the embperl brackets get passed on as text as output in the HTML, so the preprocessor isn't invoked by default. The HTML::Embperl man page says to copy embpcgi.pl to the cgi-bin directory. I've done this. Then it says: If you are running the Apache httpd, you can also define embpcgi.pl as a handler for a specific file extention or directory. Example of Apache srm.conf: <Directory /path/to/your/html/docs> Action text/html /cgi-bin/embperl/embpcgi.pl </Directory> So I tried variants of this but when I restart apache I get the error: Invalid command 'Action', perhaps mis-spelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration Reconfiguring apache doesn't help (although I note it hasn't detected that I have mod_perl installed). Any help appreciated, Peter
