I think the doc is misleading.
The Following Does not work
<Location /pasp>
DirectoryIndex index.html index.shtml index.cgi
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler Apache::ASP
PerlSetVar Global /tmp/asp
</Location>
But This does work
<Location /pasp>
DirectoryIndex index.html index.shtml index.cgi
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler Apache::ASP
# PerlSetVar Global /tmp/asp
</Location>
The Directory block
<Directory /usr/home/httpd/pasp>
AllowOverride All
DirectoryIndex index.html index.shtml index.cgi
Options ExecCGI
</Directory>
remained unchanged as did the directory contents
Why the PerlSetVar in the <Location> takes precedence over the .htaccess
file, I do not know. What is the order of precedence of <Directory>
<Location> and .htaccess? Or is it a precedence problem between the <Files
~ (\.htm)> block in the .htaccess file and the <Location> block in the
server config?
Anyway, I think it might be helpful to future ASP newbies if you removed
the "PerlSetVar Global /tmp" from the <Location> block in your example.
