koha 3.0 alpha, Debian etch, apache2
Hi all, 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. 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. I added the following to my /etc/apache2/mods-available/perl.load file <Directory /home/*/public_html/cgi-bin> SetHandler perl-script PerlHandler ModPerl::Registry Options +ExecCGI </Directory> now I can open my test .pl file in my browser. Should something like this be added to /etc/koha/koha-httpd.conf or am I missing something else? Jim LaValle jimlavalle@comcast.net http://www.rootsweb.com/~mncghs

That looks like it's only relevant to mod_perl servers, so I don't think it should be added to the standard koha-httpd.conf files - even if mod_perl is installed, someone may not want to use it for koha. If it's generally useful (I've not tested it), we could add it to the READMEs or INSTALLs, to help mod_perl server owners set up.
