Perl doesnt work with my Apache 1.3.27

Hi there,

Previously I had my website run using NCSA server, but recently I upgraded to Apache 1.3.27. Iam running it as a test now but eventually will run everything using Apache. Everything works fine except for the PERL scripts. There was no problem running these scripts in NCSA server. Is there anything to do with the config files or anything else. Iam really in a dilemma how to proceed. Help from you guys will be highly appreciated. Waiting for your replies.

RE: Perl doesnt work with my Apache 1.3.27

Most perl scripts have to be in a directory that is executable /cgi-bin/ or something like that. This needs to be enabled in the httpd.conf file lokk for the section like this

Code:

ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "/var/www/cgi-bin/"

It might have a # sign in front of it. remove the # and restart your apache server.
