Hello,

While I agree with merlyn, writing a counter as a tutorial is a fine idea. I haven't seen anyone give these pointers yet, so I will:

• add use CARP::FatalsToBrowser; so you can get the error messages there.
• until you add that, look at your browsers error log for the exact errors.
• "An error processing this directive" often means that the path to perl is incorrect or the file is not an executable (ie, chmod a+x file.pl).

Once you start getting useable error messages, this should be a lot easier to debug.
