[Koha] Help Installing Plack on Koha 17.11

[Piotr Wejman]

Hi,

I've just finished setting Plack, so few tips which you may find helpfull:
- you probably need to install  libcgi-emulate-psgi-perl
libcgi-compile-perl (not sure if packaged for Ubuntu 16.04, I'm using
Debian 9.4)
- If you;re missing any perl modules, try to google them first and check if
they have been packaged for your OS, sometimes package name is tricky to
find with apt
- if you're enabling Plack for existing instance, check if you have
plack-related Include lines in your
/etc/apache2/sites-available/$INSTANCE.conf
(I've just filled a bug for this:
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=20692)
- after Plack is tarted, you should see entries
in /var/log/koha/$instance/plack.log when any page is accessed

Hope this will help.

Piotr
