<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">Hi all,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman"></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">I've been trying to load koha 3.0, on Debian
etch and apache2 and got to step 6 in the install.debian instructions. I
could not access the web installer.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman"></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">It turns out, I could not access any .pl files
with a web browser! After days of search and trying things, I added a cgi-bin
directory to my /home/*/public_html directory. I could execute .cgi files but
not .pl files.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman"></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">I added the following to my
/etc/apache2/mods-available/perl.load file</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman"></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman"><Directory
/home/*/public_html/cgi-bin></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">SetHandler perl-script</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">PerlHandler ModPerl::Registry</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">Options +ExecCGI</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman"></Directory></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman"></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">now I can open my test .pl file in my
browser.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman"></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">Should something like this be added to
/etc/koha/koha-httpd.conf or am I missing something else?</FONT></DIV>
