Stu,

You don't need mod_perl to run PERL programs with Apache
It's not clear what the problem is, but it sounds like you can get PERL 
programs to run if they are called .cgi but not .pl

If so, try adding this line to httpd.conf

  AddHandler cgi-script .pl 

regards
John

   I am having problems getting Apache to recognize perl files...
someone suggested installing mod_perl...

1) Is installing  mod_perl  necessary to running perl scripts

via Apache / webserver ?


2) I saw something in the mod_perl "faqs" about getting a popup

save window instead of the perl file running... can I add the

PerlSendHeader On  to Apache without running mod_perl ?  That is

what is happening here now... .cgi files run / .pl files give me

the save widget.

   I hope somebody can help with this... I really WOULD like to
do some programming with mod_perl too :)
