Some cut & paste from previous messages...
For RedHat DSO specific steps in the mod_perl guide see:
http://perl.apache.org/guide/install.html#Installing_separate_Apache_and_m
No need to recompile Apache. My DSO setup works quite well!
**********EDIT the "/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf" file
#uncomment the line below under the section
# Dynamic Shared Object (DSO) Support
LoadModule perl_module modules/libperl.so
#uncomment the line below under the section
# Extra Modules
AddModule mod_perl.c
#add the following line
ScriptAlias /perl/ "/home/httpd/cgi-bin/"
#uncomment the following lines
# If the perl module is installed, this will be enabled.
<IfModule mod_perl.c>
Alias /perl/ /home/httpd/cgi-bin/
<Location /perl>
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler Apache::Registry
Options +ExecCGI
</Location>
</IfModule>
*********************************************
I use my setup to test, so I execute both mod_perl & standard perl
scripts from the same CGI directory...
Now, anything that is accessed as
http://mysite.com/perl/perlscript.cgi will
run as a mod_perl script, and anything accessed as
http://mysite.com/cgi-bin/perlscript.cgi will run as a non_mod_perl
script.
Use this setup only if you want to test
scripts as both normal cgi & mod_perl scripts, otherwise you'll need
to point
the "Alias /perl/ /home/httpd/cgi-bin/" line & "ScriptAlias /perl/
"/home/httpd/cgi-bin/" line to point to another CGI directory of your
choice.
Hope this helps!
