RE: [cobalt-developers] Raq4 is Do I need to install Perl for my site that has pl scripts

Nope, CGI is already enabled for that site.. It was the path to the /bin/perl/ dir in the script itself. I modified it with vi and now works well.. Sometimes you just need someone to remind you of small mistakes. Newbie? I've been viewing this list for over 7 months and My first Linux project was running a Half - Life game server with apache running statstics 4 years ago. (( www.foxrangers.com)) Still running to this day :) and has not been powered down in 2 years :) I dont consider myself a newbie, The sky is limitless with Linux and programs to work with him. I do everything at the prompt..chmod, chown, chgrp, mgetty, mount, umount map, grep, tar, mv etc.. I dont find Perl to be something I should have to study to be noticed as a non-newbie in this email listing to Cobalt. I find knowledge in here to be quite usefull, and I share my tips with others who share theirs.. I only have typed 4 times in here over the 7 months ive been part.. to busy racing motocross I dont take time to read much email.
I call people newbies that ask a question like (whats vi?) but I keep it to myself to be polite.

Before you get flamed off for posting a newbie to the dev list

raq ALL have perl 5 installed (thats how the webbbased GUI works ;)

to enable it for a site go into site settings an tick CGI

.pl and .cgi extensions will work fine in ANY location
but if your a conformist manually create a folder called
cgi-bin and place all the scripts in there

hope that helps

Subject: [cobalt-developers] Raq4 is Do I need to install Perl for my
site that has pl scripts


I have a web site that runs .pl scripts in the cgi-bin directory. They dont
seem to be working on the Raq4 and I dont know if the Raq4 already has Perl
installed.. I see Perl5 in the tree but do not know if its installed or
running.
Does anybody know what I can do to get this running? (Permissions are all
correct also)
THANK YOU MUCH!
