Folks, I'm desperate !
I'm not very experienced with Apache and now I'm trying to set up an Apache Web Server (Under AIX) that's capable of handling Perl Scripts.

Can you help me out ?
What packages do I have to add and what configuration changes have to be made in order for this to work ?

So far I got a basic Apache Installation ...

Regards
Thomas
 
Hi

By default there is no special requirement for running Perl scripts as CGI scripts. Set up Apache to handle CGI scripts as described in Apache Tutorial: Dynamic Content with CGI and Apache will run your Perl, Bash, Awk, whatever-else-you-want scripts.

If you have special requirements, tell us.

Note that there is also a dedicated module to run Perl scripts, we discussed about it last month in thread219-1649690. But probably you will not need it.


Feherke.
