[Koha] problem getting Koha to start

[John Fitzgibbon]

Hi,

I have installed Koha. The web page which states 'Welcome to Koha' is
called index.html and is located in /usr/local/koha/intranet/htdocs.

In Apache, I created an alias or virtual directory called libkoha which
points to the directory /usr/local/koha/intranet

The web address http://localhost/libkoha/htdocs calls up the 'Welcome
page'. But the page is now unable to find a program entitled
'mainpage.pl'. I edited index.html by putting .. before the absolute
address to this file. I noticed the file is in the parent directory.

Now it prompts me for a program to run mainpage.pl. I point it to Perl
and it downloads mainpage.pl.

What am I doing wrong?

Any help would be much appreciated.
