The mod_perl server and the CGI server are the same. It's just a
handler configured for CGI's for *.cgi and mod_perl for *.pl, and I've
symlinked from a .pl to the .cgi.
The web server for CGI and mod_perl and the command line run were all
done as the same user.
Code like this:
warn "$cmd is " . (-x $cmd ? "" : " not") ." EXECUTABLE\n" ;
warn `ls -l $cmd`;
Yields this under mod_perl:
/usr/bin/rcsdiff is not EXECUTABLE
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 49388 Sep 21 2004 /usr/bin/rcsdiff
and this from the command line and
/usr/bin/rcsdiff is EXECUTABLE
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 49388 Sep 21 2004 /usr/bin/rcsdiff
and in a CGI:
/usr/bin/rcsdiff is EXECUTABLE
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 49388 Sep 21 2004 /usr/bin/rcsdiff
Same server, CGI vs mod_perl, different behavior.
Probably not permissions. But what?
