I suspected there might be a syntax problem in the original (stock
installation version of the 75_mod_perl.conf) and indicated what I tried as
alternatives. According to (my understanding of) the documentation the
following should be valid...
<Location ~ "^/perl/*.pl">
but this resulted in a permission denied (see original post for what
worked).
I don't see any conflict as there is no other definition of the /perl/
directory. For completeness the full configuration is...
<IfDefine PERL>
<IfModule !mod_perl.c>
LoadModule perl_module modules/mod_perl.so
</IfModule>
</IfDefine>
<IfModule mod_perl.c>
#PerlTrace all
PerlRequire "/etc/apache2/modules.d/apache2-mod_perl-startup.pl"
#Provide two aliases to the same cgi-bin directory,
#to see the effects of the 2 different mod_perl modes
#for Apache2::Registry Mode
Alias /perl/ /var/www/localhost/perl/
#for Apache2::Perlrun Mode
Alias /cgi-perl/ /var/www/localhost/cgi-perl/
# <IfModule mod_access.c>
<Location /perl-status>
SetHandler perl-script
PerlResponseHandler Apache2::Status
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
Allow from 127.0.0.1
</Location>
# </IfModule>
<Directory /home/*/public_html/perl>
SetHandler perl-script
PerlResponseHandler ModPerl::PerlRun
Options -Indexes ExecCGI
PerlOptions +ParseHeaders
</Directory>
PerlModule ModPerl::Registry
#set Apache::Registry Mode for /perl Alias
# To set subdirectories to use perl set the following
# and comment the orignial:
# <Location ~ "^/perl/.*\.pl$">
<Location /perl/*.pl>
SetHandler perl-script
PerlResponseHandler ModPerl::Registry
Options -Indexes ExecCGI
PerlSendHeader On
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
Allow from 127.0.0.1
</Location>
#set Apache::PerlRun Mode for /cgi-perl Alias
<Location /cgi-perl/*.pl>
SetHandler perl-script
PerlResponseHandler ModPerl::PerlRun
Options -Indexes ExecCGI
PerlSendHeader On
</Location>
# Load various modules automatically
PerlModule CGI Apache::DBI DBI DBD::mysql
</ifModule>
If there is a syntax error with the <Location ~ "/perl/*.pl"> then I'd
appreciate it if someone could explain what it is and how to correct it
(likewise with any conflicts).
Cheers
Neil
