I am getting up and running a server that wants mod_perl. The instructions talks about a startup script. I'm very new, so I don't know how I'm supposed to get this step completed.
Do I copy the provided script to a location? Do I edit an existing script? Do I edit some configuration file? Thank you. The instructions I'm following is quoted below, it is from http://doc.otrs.org/1.1/html/install-cli.html#INSTALL-CLI-WEBSERVER > You may want to use a mod_perl startup script. Compiled modules on startup > (speed!)! Use the mod_perl startup script which comes with otrs > (scripts/apache-perl-startup.pl). > > - Change the default startup script location of your httpd to > $OTRS_HOME/scripts/apache-perl-startup.pl in httpd.conf > [...] > # load all otrs modules > Perlrequire /opt/otrs/scripts/apache-perl-startup.pl > [...] > > Edit the scripts/apache-perl-startup.pl script: > > - Establish datababase connections on process startup (httpd). > > [...] > use Apache (); > use Apache::DBI (); > Apache::DBI->connect_on_init('DBI:mysql:otrs', 'otrs', 'some-pass'); > # Apache::DBI->connect_on_init($data_source, $username, $auth, \%attr) > [...] > > - Change the otrs lib dir (if needed)! > > [...] > # -- > # set otrs lib path! > # -- > use lib "/path/to/otrs/"; > use lib "/path/to/otrs/Kernel/cpan-lib"; > [...] > > Nice! You will love mod_perl! ,-) -- Wes Plate Automatic Duck, Inc. http://www.wesplate.com http://www.automaticduck.com
