Do you mean the initial install (from CPAN presumably) or the "working" install done by running Apache2?

# in /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/perl.conf:
PerlModule Apache2
PerlModule ModPerl::Registry
PerlInitHandler Apache::Reload
PerlRequire /etc/apache2/startup.pl


# in /etc/apache2/startup.pl
use lib qw(/var/www/cgi-bin /var/www/cgi-bin/modules);

use DBI;
use CGI qw(:cgi);
use File::Find;
use HTML::Template;
use OwnModulesHere;


 print STDERR "Pre-loading HTML Templates...\n";
 if (1) {
 find(
   sub {
   return unless /\.tmpl$/;
   HTML::Template->new(
     filename => "$File::Find::dir/$_",
     cache => 1,
   );
 },

   '/var/www/TemplatesFolder', 
   );
 }

well tried using use lib in my startup.pl file. but doesn't seem to be doing anything.



use CGI ();
use Image::Size ();
use Imager ();
use strict;
use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser);
CGI->compile(':all');

use lib ("cgi-bin/beta.pl");
use lib ("cgi-bin/betaupload.pl");

BEGIN {
    unshift(@INC, '/var/www/perl');
}

1;

eh, use lib is to tell perl where to look for modules:


#when using
use lib ("/home/user/usermods/")

#and your script is in /usr/local/somewhere/script.pl.
#calling
use MyOwnModule;

#it's searching in /home/user/usermods/ as well.
