I believe mod_perl has has always been compiled and ready to use in each Mac OS X release. The only change was that recently it was not enabled by default in the Apache 2 conf when they moved to it so you just need to add: LoadModule perl_module libexec/apache2/mod_perl.so These are just my observations from experience. I realize this is not a Mac help list but I thought I should lessen the drama. -- David Steinbrunner ##### CGI::Application community mailing list ################ ## ## ## To unsubscribe, or change your message delivery options, ## ## visit: http://www.erlbaum.net/mailman/listinfo/cgiapp ## ## ## ## Web archive: http://www.erlbaum.net/pipermail/cgiapp/ ## ## Wiki: http://cgiapp.erlbaum.net/ ## ## ## ################################################################
