Configuring httpd.conf to recognize mod_perl
Hi guys:
I installed ActivePerl and ran the *.ppd file to install mod_perl.
i got these errors though:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Writing D:\serv\lang\site\lib\auto\mod_perl\.packlist
Cannot find file 'perl' (or one of its components). Check to
ensure the path and filename are correct and that all required
libraries are available.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is the only part that failed and according to one of the threads in the achives (http://www.mail-archive.com/modperl@apache.org/msg18596.html)
All i had to was copy the "mod_perl.so" into my apache/modules directory and it would be ok.
So all i need to know now is how do i make apache recognize this new module? what do i need to add or change in the httpd.conf file? do i have to make any other changes anywhere else? thanx !

Is Perl in your PATH when you're installing this?

At http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppmpackages/httpd.conf-perl
there's a sample Apache httpd.conf file for Win32 mod_perl/mod_ssl.
Basically, to get started you need to load it:
LoadModule perl_module modules/mod_perl.so
This file then gives some examples of using Apache::Registry,
HTML::Embperl, Apache::ASP, and HTML::Mason in this environment.
Also, check http://perl.apache.org/, especially the mod_perl
guide, and http://take23.org/, for further information.
