Do you mean if it's in your filesystem somewhere, or if it's been
loaded by mod_perl, or if you've configured it correctly?

If all are true then just put something in an html file like this:
HTMLHEADTITLETitle/TITLEHeading stuff./HEAD
BODY
% my $variable = 'This is produced by ASP.'; $
This is ordinary HTML text.
%= $variable %
/BODY
/HTML

and fetch the page with a browser.


If you put

PerlSetVar debug 2

in your httpd.conf then you'll get heaps of irritating (sorry Josh:)
output from ASP if it's doing anything.

Yes.

--begin hello.asp
%= "Hello World" %
--end hello.asp

Thanks .. I typed this:
[root admin]# perl
use Apache::ASP;
print "Hello World\n";

then pressed Ctrl-D, and it output:

Hello World
[root admin]#

So, I assuming that means it's working.

When I type lwp-request command, I get this:

Connection: close

Which I believe means that mod_perl 1.24 is installed.

So by that rational, can someone on our server now program 
with mod_perl and
Apache::ASP??

prompt# perl

^D

If you get no errors it's there

I put that into an HTML file and looked at it in a browser and received this
output:

--begin hello.asp --end hello.asp

is there something else I need to do?

Thanks for all your help guys!

 This is the output of my httpd -l command .. how can I tell if Apache::ASP
 is available?

you can't from http -l. Apache::ASP is not an apache module but a perl
module.  try 'perldoc Apache::ASP' if you see the documentation then
Apache::ASP was properly installed.

another thing, you will not be able to run microsoft asp implementation on
Apache::ASP.  as of the moment it just gives an easy way of embedding perl
code directly into html so that you can still use your favorite html
editor without it mangling your perl code.

if your purpose in installing Apache::ASP is to run real microsoft asp
pages, then your going the wrong direction.  only NT/2000 with IIS will be
able to serve asp pages.

 
 
 [admin admin]$ httpd -l
 bash: httpd: command not found
 [admin admin]$ /usr/sbin/httpd -l
 Compiled-in modules:
   http_core.c
   mod_so.c
   mod_perl.c
 suexec: disabled; invalid wrapper /usr/sbin/suexec
 [admin admin]$

ASP - Active Server Pages, is a Microsoft API for web scripting,
application development.  VBScript is the primary language
for that platform, however there is a PerlScript plugin
available which Apache::ASP is fairly compatible with.

If an application is writtin for IIS/PerlScript, however unlikely,
then the port will be much easier to Apache::ASP.
