Subject: ScriptAlias and mod_perl
I did a lot of searching in the archives and it seems that a lot of
people who
are using mod_perl also have this line in their config:
ScriptAlias /otrs/ "/opt/otrs/bin/cgi-bin/"
I read some documentation which said that this forces the use of
mod_cgi and
that one should instead use the Alias directive along with SetHandler
for
mod_perl. If I use ScriptAlias as above then OTRS works correctly,
but I do
not think it is using mod_perl as the following test script does not
execute
correctly:
my $r = shift;
$r->send_http_header('text/plain');
$r->print("mod_perl rules!\n");
However, I cannot get OTRS to work properly that way (without using
ScriptAlias). It just displays the scripts as plain text instead of
executing
them.
I am running RHEL4 with mod_perl 2.02, CGI.pm 3.33, and apache 2.0.52.
Here is my config:
