Hey Monks!

I installed XAMP on my XP system awhile ago.. I recently installed Strawberry Perl, which is the perl I'd prefer to use, and I've installed my modules in that library.

So, does anyone know how I can configure apache to use the Strawberry Perl interpreter instead of the one installed by XAMP? Nor would I know how to do that too..

Here's my perl.conf file. I see that its pointing to perl510.dll, but I'm not sure if I point it to the perl.dll in the Strawberry perl lib that it would work. I'm not sure if I need to point it to the perl.exe file in the Strawberry /bin dir or not.

LoadFile "C:/xampp/perl/bin/perl510.dll"
LoadModule perl_module modules/mod_perl.so
LoadModule apreq_module modules/mod_apreq2.so

PerlSwitches -T 
PerlPostConfigRequire "C:/xampp/apache/conf/extra/startup.pl"

<IfModule mime_module>
    AddType text/html .pl
</IfModule>

<FilesMatch "\.pl$">
    SetHandler perl-script
    PerlResponseHandler ModPerl::Registry
    PerlOptions +ParseHeaders
</FilesMatch>

<Directory "C:/xampp/cgi-bin">
    <FilesMatch "\.pl$">
        SetHandler cgi-script
    </FilesMatch>
</Directory>

# ASP settings
Include "conf/extra/asp.conf"
