mod_perl is a function of Apache, not the perl scripts. IIRC, you can specify that some directories not use mod_perl via httpd.conf directives, or run used-to-be CGI files under mod_perl (with varying success...if they were written with 'use strict;' in place they should run ok. They may run optimally, and there are gotchas, particularly around things like 'use somefile.pl;' to include stuff in a re-usable fashion, but in our experience moving about 50-70 scripts from a non-mod_perl Apache 1.3 system to a mod_perl Apache 2.0 system, very few things broke.) See: <http://www.dlhoffman.com/publiclibrary/software/mod_perl/mod_perl_cgi.html#> See also: <http://docstore.mik.ua/orelly/weblinux2/modperl/ch02_06.htm> The first thing to try, imo, is just set up the new Apache server with mod_perl and run through the apps, see what breaks...no need to fix things that aren't broken. -- Bruce Johnson University of Arizona College of Pharmacy Information Technology Group Institutions do not have opinions, merely customs
