and i tried to simply open the mainpage.pl files directly with mozilla. Mozilla then asks me which program it should use to open the .pl file... [...] I use debian 3.1 sarge, [...]
I can't remember whether it's the case on sarge, but some debian apache2 packages did not enable CGI by default. Check for /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/cgi.conf and cgi.load Another possibility is a suExec problem: check the main /var/log/apache*/error.log after a restart to see if you're using suexec. The Mozilla asking what to open .pl with means that Apache is not running the CGI script for some reason. (I guess we should not keep .pl under DocumentRoot in general, but it was useful sometimes.) Find that reason and you can fix your koha. Hope that helps, -- MJ Ray - personal email, see http://mjr.towers.org.uk/email.html Work: http://www.ttllp.co.uk/ irc.oftc.net/slef Jabber/SIP ask
