This is "OSX" we're talking about, right? It does indeed come with
mod_perl, and it works just fine. See /etc/httpd/httpd.conf to make
the tweaks.
What I did to keep the core conf file clean was create
~merlyn/Sites/.httpd.conf and then symlink that into
/etc/httpd/users/merlyn.conf . That means I can edit a file without
going sudo, and stop/start my server from the sharing preferences
pane, and it will be considered part of the system conf file.
Here's a few lines from my local conf file. I set up a server-info,
a server-status, a mod_perl url (/perl) and a mod_cgi url (/cgi),
as well as permitting others to browse my music collection (/Music),
and a local caching proxy server (point my browser at :8800).
Now, I also have another apache-ssl-modperl in another area on my
laptop, but that's so I can clone stonehenge.com's exact configuration
for local editing, and that's all I use it for. I use the built-in
server for all my in-class demos and quick testing.
