There is no error in line
<Files *.pl>
It is working for me, on
(mod_perl/1.24, Apache/1.3.12 , RedHat7).
Content of my perl.conf file are:
Alias /perl/ /var/www/perl/
<Location /perl>
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler Apache::Registry
Options +ExecCGI
</Location>
<Files *.pl>
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler Apache::Registry
PerlSendHeader On
Options +ExecCGI
</Files>
<Files *.mpl>
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler Apache::Registry
PerlSendHeader On
Options +ExecCGI
</Files>
<Location /perl-status>
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler Apache::Status
</Location>
I am able to run *.pl and *.mpl using above
settings.
In your case possible error may be like <Files..> section
may be nested inside directive like <Location..>, or
inside any other directive.
Please check your error log. What happen when you get your
mod-perl script using browser, You get the source code as it is
or get any error?
