Re: Apache + mysql + Perl

This is a very common problem - apache needs to be configured to understand CGI, and call the correct interpreter.

Please do a web search for "apache cgi shown in browser" to review all symptoms and solutions.

My goal ... to kill off the slow brain cells that are holding me back from synergizing my knowledge of vertically integrated mobile platforms in local cloud-based content management system datafication.

I've scoured all of those search results already, I've spent a good 4 hours trying to fix this, I tried fresh install of apache, I tried adding the "addHandler" line to httpd.conf, I've tried a large chunk of those options and have not found a fix to my problem.	[reply]

What search terms did you use? What search results did you find? I've spent a good 4 hours trying to fix this, I tried fresh install of apache, I tried adding the "addHandler" line to httpd.conf, I've tried a large chunk of those options and have not found a fix to my problem. By now you should have a good list , a list of links and things you tried, and a list of results (symptoms/behaviours/error messages) of how they failed, that you can share with us I kinda feel stupid pointing this out, but have you read https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/howto/public_html.html#cgi / Apache Tutorial: Dynamic Content with CGI? If you're interested in more checklists I use all the time, read Coping with Scoping , CGI to mod_perl Porting. mod_perl Coding guidelines , Server error, CGI Help Guide , Troubleshooting Perl CGI scripts , On debugging, verify everything, talk to teddybear ..., brian's Guide to Solving Any Perl Problem,	[reply]

You did remember to restart apache, right? ~Thomas~ "Excuse me for butting in, but I'm interrupt-driven..."	[reply]
