[ILUG] Perl and Apache

[Kevin Philp]

To answer all the replies:
Script is executable:
-rwxr-xr-x    1 kevin    kevin        1076 May  4 12:11 index.pl*

The script starts with:
#!/bin/sh
echo DEFANGED.0
exit
#!/usr/bin/perl

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

The #! line is correct, I checked.

I changed the directives to
<Directory "/var/www/html/teerhatavaz">
 AllowOverride All                                        
 Options +ExecCGI                                         
 AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .pl                           
</Directory>

I still get the same response. In konqueror I just get a copy of the raw 
script. It appears to send it to me as plain text and skip sending it to perl 
for processing.

Kevin.

A Lack of AllowOverride somewhere before ?

Does it sends you the raw perl source ?
Is your script chmod ogu +x ?
Does your script start with #/usr/bin/perl ?
