Mailing List Archive: EmbperlObject setup

I'm having problem geting EmbperlObject to function. Maybe I didn't
configure Embperl Object right.

What I did:

- installed embperl on modperl and apache

- didn't install make test because I didn't have all the librarys

-Tested embperl with example and they seemed to work find

Added to httpd.conf:

Alias /foo/ /home/philk/public_html/foo/

<Location /foo>
PerlSetEnv EMBPERL_OBJECT_BASE base.html
PerlSetEnv EMBPERL_FILESMATCH "\.htm.?|\.epl$"
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler HTML::EmbperlObject
Options ExecCGI
</Location>

SetEnv EMBPERL_DEBUG 2285

<Files *.epl>
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler HTML::Embperl
Options ExecCGI
</files>

AddType text/html .epl

Pages and locations

/home/philk/public_html/foo/base.html
<html>
<head>
<title>Example</title>
</head>
<body>
[- Execute ('head.html') -]
[- Execute ('*') -]
[- Execute ('foot.html') -]
</body>
</html>

/home/philk/public_html/foo/foot.html
<hr> Footer <hr>

/home/philk/public_html/foo/head.html
<h1>head from foo</h1>

/home/philk/public_html/foo/page1.html
PAGE 1

/home/philk/public_html/foo/sub/head.html
<h1>another head from sub</h1>

/home/philk/public_html/foo/sub/index.html
Index of /foo/sub

/home/philk/public_html/foo/sub/page2.html
PAGE 2

After I restarted apache
Is there any extra configuration I missed

The configuration seems to be ok now. How do you request the pages?

A request to

http://localhost/foo/page1.html

for example should give you the correct output

P.S. If you still can't get it to run, edit the file EmbperlObject.pm. There
are some "warn" which are comment out, delete the # at the start of the line
and watch the httpd.error.log. Do you get any messages there? If yes, send
them to me.
