Re: Re: How can i tell if mod

well, i wanted apache to run all cgi under mod_perl -- this isn't a web box, its my tibook running osx

freaking thing is just 101 nightmares and then some more

i think i'm just gonna recompile apache on it... i tried kscwab's ideas - which are great. but it was starting a new interpreter. so i asked some friends. they tried too - mod_perl comes prebuilt on osx too - and their machines were just running new interpreters too.

anyways, thanks for all your help. you're all rockstars in my book. damn osx. this is almost worse than trying to compile python on this machine

well, i wanted apache to run all cgi under mod_perl That's not feasible in any real situtation. CGI is still necessary, both for misbehaving Perl programs that don't play well with Apache::Registry, and for non-Perl programs! Remember, `Apache::Registry` (what most people call "running under mod_perl") is just a tiny bit of mod_perl, and it has very explicit restrictions to accomplish its task. You're definitely not even touching the power of mod_perl until you learn to plug in some more advanced structures, like Apache::Template or writing your own handlers. -- Randal L.

Have you tried ApacheToolbox yet? Wonderful stuff! UPDATE: Hmmmm, i am not, however, positive that ApacheToolbox will work on an OSX box ... sorry if it does not. :( jeffa L-LL-L--L-LL-L--L-LL-L-- -R--R-RR-R--R-RR-R--R-RR B--B--B--B--B--B--B--B-- H---H---H---H---H---H--- (the triplet paradiddle with high-hat)	[reply]
