The we are not able to bring the site up and running on linux version 6.2 with perl 5.005 , mod_perl 1.21 , I think the problem is the version of the perl that we are using . We have installed perl 5.6 but we are not able to figure out how to instruct apache to use that version of perl(5.6) .Are there any configuration parameter that could be changed . Is the "our" directive used in some of files new to perl 5.6 because we could not find that directive in the most of the perl books we referered to.
