When you copied the contents, did you get the .* files as well? If you didn't, that's most likely your problem... The examples need the .htaccess file (and maybe others) to function correctly.

I'm in the middle of just that and I'm having some issues.... I'm using a virgin install of RedHat on a VA linux server. I uninstalled the RPMed Apache that was loaded with the OS. I got the apache.1.3.22 sources and the mod_perl 1.26 sources and built apache with mod_perl...by all accounts that seems to be working. I ran a couple of tests as listed on the mod_perl project site to verify that the mod_perl build of apache was running (checking the logs, telnetting to it, etc). That all seems to be fine. Then I did the compile/install of Apache::ASP as listed on your site > perl Makefile.PL > make > make test > make install and that seems to go through OK. It is, however, after this that I get confused. Keep in mind I'm a newbie to this. This is my first non-RPM install of Apache or its modules. Am I correct in understanding that all I need to do to make Apache::ASP work is copy the contents of ./site/eg to my server doc root (/usr/local/apache/htdocs) and add the following to httpd.conf and restart httpd? <Directory / > Options FollowSymLinks AllowOverride All </Directory> Do I also add <Files ~ (\.asp)> SetHandler perl-script PerlModule Apache::ASP PerlHandler Apache::ASP PerlSetVar Global . PerlSetVar StateDir /tmp/asp </Files> at this point? So I tried that and restart the daemon and the ASP pages I have either show garbled output or return a 500 internal server error... Here's what my log states.
