Re^3: To Run perl through CGI

Your test script cannot run because it is not a cgi script, so Apache cannot run it. Try this instead:

#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;

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

print "<html>";
print "<header><title>Hello</title></header>";
print "<body>";
print "<p>Hello World!</p>\n";
print "</body>";
print "</html>";

The next problem is your Apache configuration. What version is Apache? You can find that by typing this into a terminal:

apachectl -V

If your Apache is 2.4, you need to add this line to the configuration:

Require all granted
[download]

That goes at the bottom of your directory configuration. Also make the changes that davebaker and AnonymousMonk have mentioned.
