Re: apache2 + mod_perl 1.99_11 + failed to resolve handler

<Location bla> specifies a "Path" or "URLpath", however you've got a file specification /bla/*.pl.. try changing to

<Location /path/>

Have in your apache config the file extensions allowed for cgi execution, e.g.


AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .pl
[download]

Finally make sure your Alias line to /var/www/localhost/perl/ is right, complete with ending slash correctness. The alias to your perl directory for CGIs should probably not be a subdirectory of your document root... you can operate a Alias/<Location bla/> combo outside of the Apache filesystem..

you were right about the path. however it did work with the .pl, all i had to do was give a full path... /var/www/localhost/perl/.pl. thank you very much for the help!	[reply]
