Help --Installing mod_perl for Apache 2 ?

[Stephen Clarke <an...@longusername.worldonline.co.uk>]

Hi all,

Can anyone help me to install mod_perl for Apache2.0.40 on win32?
My perl script, a simple hello world, just hangs in the browser waiting for
a response.

Here's what I've done. BTW mod_perl was working fine with Apache 1.3.14.

PPM> set repository uwinnipeg
http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/cgi-bin/ppmserver?urn:/PPMServer
PPM> install mod_perl-2

...in the Apache config,

LoadModule perl_module modules/mod_perl.so

<IfModule mod_perl.c>

    Alias /cgi-perl z:/cgi-perl

#    PerlRequire z:/cgi-perl/start2.pl

     <Location /cgi-perl>

        SetHandler perl-script

        PerlResponseHandler ModPerl::Registry

        Options +ExecCGI

    </Location>

</IfModule>

the script looks like this

    print "Content-type: text/plain\n\n";

    print "hello world";

and is invoked with

http://localhost/cgi-perl/hello.cgi

The server starts and works, but the script just hangs. Any ideas ?


I would be grateful for any help.

TIA.

Steve
