Apache won't work if you mix a virtual directory, real directory
and path_info.
This is because PATH_INFO is what ever is left over after url =>
file name
mapping. If there's no real file, then apache removes the
<Location> value, else
it removes the part that is a real file/directory.
If you want a virtual directory, make sure that there are no real
directories of
the same name.
Sounds like I am experiencing this problem. Another way of explaining
this is using ScriptAlias - if I was using standard CGI I could do
this...
ScriptAlias /xyz/abc /usr/lib/cgi-bin/test-fm.pl
And now it will work perfectly. It does not matter if directories
exist or not.
e.g. http://www.myhost.com/xyz/abc/qqq/123
Now has PATH_INFO set to "/qqq/123". You can create in DocumentRoot
"xyz" and even "xyz/abc" and even "xyz/abc/qqq" and it still sets
PATH_INFO to "/qqq/123"
However this is not the case using "<Location>" which does make sense
but...
So another way of putting my question is - how do I use a Perl Module
instead of a ScriptAlias (CGI Script) and get the same results from
path_info.

Microsoft is not the answer. It's the question. And the answer is no.
