Dears, even at risk of proposing an off-topic, I'd like to know your
opinion about this question. I consider the CGI::Application a gorgeous
framework. It creates the "Best of the Worlds" connecting the MVC model
with the CGI simplicity. In my opinion this is particularly valuable
when you wish to use it in hosts with shared servers. This possibility
extends considerably its use at the Internet because perl has a
perl-efficient platform for internet begginers.
Congratulations to all involved.
The only thing we need is to install the modules required in the host.
The biggers hosts, those which provide Linux with shell access and perl,
allow some kind of automated installation. In my case, through CPanel
BlueHost remains the options of:
i) install a module
ii) remove a module
iii) update a module to the last version
I Installed the CGI::Application (4.21) and lots of plugins without
problems.
The CGI::Application::Dispatch installed was requesting the module
correctly but wasn't sendind the right parameters, so I decided to
update it. Unfortunnately it cannot install the version 2.16 or
reinstall the old version.
The BlueHost support doesn't help enough, they said that what I can't
install through CPanel just cannot be used.
I wonder if anyone has any tips to help, other than change the host.
Below is the report of the attempt to install. Despite they said that
the modules below are pre-requisites not installed they are installed.
