Default Has anyone installed mod_perl

...and had it work successfully with the stock 1.3.29 Apache?

Like so?

Code:
Alias /perl/ /home/httpd/perl/
  PerlModule Apache::Registry
  <Location /perl>
    SetHandler perl-script
    PerlHandler Apache::Registry
    Options ExecCGI
    allow from all
    PerlSendHeader On
  </Location>

No, I've never used that particular application, but I'm replying because you might find FAQ 10.16 is applicable to your situation.

Thanks; I have been able to get cgi-bin scripts to run (using mod_cgi of course) and have copied over Perl and required libraries so that I do not need to use httpd -u, but to no avail yet.

Have you been able to run a simple perl script (blah.pl) from /var/www/cgi-bin ? I realize you say you have using mod_cgi, but I got this following script running with just the vanilla install of mod_perl... am I missing something from your description?

I did the following-

Code:
# pkg_add mod_perl-1.30p1
# apachectl stop
# /usr/local/sbin/mod_perl-enable
# apachectl start
# cd /var/www/cgi-bin/
# nano mp-rules.pl
Then... here's the contents of mp-rules.pl
Code:
#!/usr/bin/perl
print "Content-type: text/plain\r\n\r\n";
print "mod_perl rules!\n";
Then... back at the command prompt...

Code:
# chmod 777 mp-rules.pl
... And finally loaded http://myserverip.domain/cgi-bin/mp-rules.pl in my browser and it worked.

Are you not getting the same love?

Haven't tried that; I created my own modperl directory, assuming that anything in the cgi-bin would automatically be processed by mod_cgi with no choice. When I use my own modperl directory, it displays as plain text, despite making the .pl file executable, etc.

Did you also add .pl to the 'AddHandler cgi-script' section in your httpd.conf? Curious how this could work. I've tried 'AddHandler perl-script .pl' in addition to the directory 'SetHandler perl-script', but nothing.

I didn't add that personally... perhaps the pkg_add installation script did...

since doing that I installed Mason, which promptly broke the script that was executing above... lol. I can take a look when I get home (server at home) to see if that was, in fact, added to httpd.conf.
