Anyone familiar with setting up Apache web server and PERL on a local machine to test scripts?

It's been years since I did it, so I'm bound to have trouble.

Hell, does anyone here even know PERL, or am I just going to be talking to myself?

Go to cpan.org for setting up Perl in any flavor of Unix. If you are trying to run it from a Windows box make sure you install MS VM. Then you can set up whatever you want.

You can also run Active Perl from a Windows box but it is a little different then Perl. Most times you can't use the same code from Active Perl in Windows on a Unix box.

6 weeks to install Perl? What did you do, write a whole new Kernel? And no, I won't go suck myself for giving you the obvious places to look for installing the thing. I never had to install it, I use Linux and FreeBSD and those installs come with it.

I've written some ass kicking regular expressions in the past. Been about 5 years since I was writing perl scripts on a regular basis.

Rastak, one of these days you are going to discover girls. Then computer gymnastics won't seem so important.

Jesus Effen Christ. PERL isn't the problem you dope. I asked, "Anyone familiar with setting up Apache web server and PERL on a local machine to test scripts?"

Apache was the problem. But thank for directing me to the most obvious Google result for PERL. It was tremendously helpful.

What was hard about apache? Download source, compile, setup cgi, run perl scripts.

In winblows, download pre-compiled binaries, do the same thing.

If it was only that easy, I wouldn't have had a problem would I? Configuring is the step you left out and also the most poorly documented - especially for winblows. Ah well, on to the magical world of PERL. If I'm out of touch for a couple weeks, you'll know it's because I'm ass deep in curly brackets and semi colons.
