hello mod_perl
<!--mod_perl-1.26 on apache_1.3.20 on mac osX (10.0.4)-->
i am trying to get mod_perl up and running om mac osX.
i am quite sure i have installed correctly, at least according to the
99.23% okay test-report (see below).
asuming everything is installed ok (in fact how do i actually know
wheter mod_perl is properly installed?) i must so something wrong in the configuration.
i have followed Stas Bekmans slide-instructions for configuring and have
in my httpd.conf file included the same kind of perl-directive lines
which i am not 100% sure are correct (see below).
this is the location of my cgi-bin: /library/webserver/cgi-executables
this is the location of my usual web documnets: /library/webserver/documents
so this is where i would think mod_perl material should go: /library/webserver/perl
if i uncomment the perl-directive lines from the httpd.conf, i can run
good old cgi-scripts no problem.
and when i start apache i will get this message in the error-log:
[Sat Aug 4 16:04:56 2001] [notice] Apache/1.3.20 (Darwin) PHP/4.0.4pl1
configured -- resuming normal operations
i hope the above or below information is enough to one of you to solve
this probably trivial problem:-)
thanks
