Hi, 
 
I have installed the apache2triad (http://apache2triad.sourceforge.net/) software bundle which includes Apache version 2.0.48 &  Perl 5.8.0 with
mod_perl 1.99_10. There appear to be forums for apache2triad but I get a message saying the website can't be found. I've been able to get .cgi scripts running on my apache server to execute in a web brower, but not .pl files (I just see the perl file instead of the interpreted html/cgi file). I tried modifing httpd.conf to add the .pl extension like this:
 
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .pl
 
but it didn't help.
 
Perl runs fine at
the command line. I am
running windows 2000 and followed the instructions on in the Perl Win32 documentation (http://www.gsp.com/cgi-bin/man.cgi?section=1&topic=perlwin32)
about associating the .pl file extension (my PATH EXT now reads:
PATHEXT=.pl;.COM;.EXE;.BAT;.CMD;.VBS;.VBE;.JS;.JSE;.WSF;.WSH)  and setting
up an open command for the .pl file type
(    ASSOC .pl=PerlScript
    FTYPE PerlScript=perl.exe %1 %*)
but that didn't help either. I even changed the instructions at the top of
the file to say "#!c:/apache2/perl/bin/perl.exe" (where Perl is actually located for me), but it did no good.
 
On the ActivePerl website it says " Installing ActivePerl will change your Path environment variable and may change registry settings, such as file associations, which may affect your Web server. If you want to use a previously installed copy of Perl, you will need to modify these settings." (http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/docs/ActivePerl/faq/ActivePerl-faq1.html#How_do_I_install_the_Perl_for_Windows)
 
But I can't find information anywhere on how to fix these problems within my apache webserver. Any help anyone can give me on this would be *greatly* appreciated!

Thanks,
Allison Bloodworth
