The program mapserv is not required for mapscript. To find out if its in php, view the php info, which is easiest with a page like:

<?PHP
   echo phpinfo();

To see if its in perl, at a command line, type:

perl -Mmapscript -e ''

if nothing happens, your golden, otherwise you'll get an error saying it cant locate mapscript.pm.
When I tried php -r "echo phpinfo();" | grep -i mapscript on the command line nothing came up, and when I tried perl -Mapscript -e '' I got "can't find" errors, so I guess that means that mapscript is not on board. Thanks for the help; I think I know where to go from here. (If not, then I'll be back.)

There should be two M's in the perl command line, -M mean load module...

perl -Mmapscript

means module mapscript,

perl -Mapscript

means module apscript
Aha! That's better (sort of). Now I get a "Can't locate mapscript.pm in @INC " error, which is more specific than the jumble of errors you get if you leave off the second 'm'. Thanks, Andy!
