Re: [nir] install mod_perl In reply to

In the httpd.conf I insert this code
<Location />
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler Apache::Registry
PerlSendHeader On
Options +ExecCGI
</Location>

Do I need to do more?

Re: [nir] install mod_perl In reply to

Been a while since I setup mod_perl for Glinks (most sites I work on already have it setup) .. I believe you need a script of some kind, which will "import" the perl modules into mod_perl (on GT server, its a script called modperl_startup.pl ) . Not sure if that will help you find anything on the forum related to setting it up?

Cheers

See the README.mod_perl documentation that comes with the installer.

Re: [Andy] install mod_perl In reply to

Thanks, the mod is working now, but for some reason the css pages and the js pages stop to work, when I look on the mysite.com/style.css I get error Category '500..html' does not exist

I insert this code to the conf

<IfModule mod_perl.c>
<Location /main/>
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler ModPerl::Registry
PerlSendHeader On
Options +ExecCGI
</Location>
PerlRequire /home/mysite/public_html/startup.pl
</IfModule

Where is your cgi files? In a cgi-bin, or in outside of it? Sounds like mod_perl is trying to process ALL the files for some reason.

Re: [Andy] install mod_perl In reply to

I open a new folder "main" and move the user pages (page.cgi) to this folder, the admin is not in the cgi-bin.
I change the <Location /main/> but it didn’t help

Re: [nir] install mod_perl In reply to

Can you show me an example of your structure? You **REALLY** should keep ALL the .cgi stuff in a seperate cgi-bin, otherwise it causes all kinda of errors and problems ;)

Re: [nir] install mod_perl In reply to

MMm, afraid I don't really do much with mod_perl (most of the time its already setup on the larger sites =))

How about using a FULL path here? i.e:

<IfModule mod_perl.c>
<Location /home/user/full/path/main/>
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler ModPerl::Registry
PerlSendHeader On
Options +ExecCGI
</Location>
PerlRequire /home/mysite/public_html/startup.pl
</IfModule
