Trying to get apache with asp and mod perl working.
On what platform? Specifically, which versions of Apache, mod_perl, and Perl
are you using?
I get this error in the logs.
[asp] [1349] [error] error compiling test.asp: Can't modify constant item in
scalar assignment at /var/www/site/test.asp line 16, at EOF -- ,

I’ve never seen that one. It means Apache::ASP couldn’t compile an *.asp or
*.inc file, but I couldn’t say why.
What I can tell you is that Apache::ASP really hasn’t been updated
significantly since the days when mod_perl was the standard way to deploy Perl
web apps, which hasn’t been true for quite some time now. The Perl world has
moved on to Plack/PSGI and FastCGI instead, and mod_perl has been left to
bit-rot. It’s gotten to the point that RHEL 7 and its derivatives no longer
even include mod_perl.
While all of this can be worked around, I can’t recommend going to the trouble
if you don’t have a legacy code base to get working again, and not even then in
most cases.
We ported our web app to Dancer. It was quite a bit of work, but we’re very
happy with the new framework.
I wrote a longish review of Dancer as compared to Apache::ASP here on this list
about a year back: http://goo.gl/kDQB5b
