Mike,
Here is what I did:
Turn on the Personal Web Sharing from Preference>Sharing.
Copy the script to the directory
/Library/WebServer/CGI-Executables
.pl works for me.
run chmod on it to make it executable. Otherwise it won't run.(I forgot
to mention this)
That is it. I never touched any config. file.

I thought by default OS X has the cgi setup automatically.
I didn't have to do anything, just turned on the web server.
And put the perl script in the CGI-EXECUTABLES folder and it works.
I've seen comments online to this effect; that's why I think there's
some
fundamental issue with what I did to httpd. I don't necessarily trust a
single article to be correct - or timely.
I think that whatever is the contemporary solution is what I want. Is
that
to make the default solution work, and what do I need to repair? Or is
there
a reference to how I can make that work?
