You have to enable perl in the Apache config file I suppose
(/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf or something similar)

If you search the config-file for 'perl', you should find some more
information and example-config that is commented.

 Hi guys
 
 I have been trying to get mod_perl working on a default 9.0 box..
 
 with the standard config.. this doesn't work:
 
 http://localhost/perl/mod_perl-testscript.pl
 
 
 but this does:
 
 http://localhost:8200/perl/mod_perl-testscript.pl
 
 
 From what I can gather, normal apache is supposed to detect that its
 supposed to redirect
 to 8200 for scripts in /cgi-perl or /perl directories..
 
 
 but it isn't working.. am I supposed to set that up?

yeah, I know...

a long search revealed that PERLPROXIED most be enabled in the init script

So i took a look and found this (in /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd):

#If both servers are installed, perl runs as a proxy
#and has no extra modules
if [ -x /usr/sbin/httpd -a -x /usr/sbin/httpd-perl ]; then
DEFINE=-DPERLPROXIED
PERLXMODS=
fi
PERLFILE=-f /etc/httpd/conf/httpd-perl.conf
###



which seems to be testing to make sure http-perl and http are there.. they
both are...
and if they are, to define PERLPROXIED
So that appears to be correct.

Then in httpd.conf I see this:

IfDefine PERLPROXIED
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^proxy:.*  -  [F]
RewriteRule ^(.*\/perl\/.*)$  http://%{HTTP_HOST}:8200$1 [P]
RewriteRule ^(.*\/cgi-perl\/.*)$  http://%{HTTP_HOST}:8200$1 [P]
/IfDefine

Which appears to do the rewritting to port 8200 that calls to /perl or
/cgi-perl are
supposed to do.

Since I know that mod perl is working fine when I specify port 8200
manually.. the problem would have to be the rewritting..

but it all seems right.. so I am at something of a loss here..

hense my question here..

2003-06-03 Thread Steven Broos 

A quick look into my system:
/etc/httpd/conf/httpd2.conf
/etc/httpd/conf/httpd2-perl.conf
And a lot of occurences of 'perl' in /etc/init.d/httpd

Are the paths and prefixes in the config-files correct ?
Do you get any error-messages in /var/log/httpd (or /etc/httpd/logs)
when you restart apache ?
