CGI Root differs from HTML Root when CGI Debugging in Eclipse EPIC

Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Fellow monks,

I'm trying to get a fairly large project to work in the EPIC CGI Debugger. In this project, the cgi-bin directory doesn't reside within the html document root directory.

The problem I encounter is, that when I enter two different paths in the HTML root and CGI root text boxes, the eclipse web server serves the original perl source file instead of processing it.

How do I configure this right?

This is an Eclipse issue as compared to a Perl issue. I have not had much luck with EPIC and find Eclipse far too bulky to be worthwhile. I spend more time configuring the IDE than actually coding! ptkdb works just as well with a lot less overhead. and I have found Komodo to be decent for a fat solution, now that the price is reachable for me. That being said, I would check the EPIC documentation. They do at least document well. User Guide Hope that is helpful.... ...the majority is always wrong, and always the last to know about it...
