Installing Apache on a IIS and Mysql configured Windows Xp.

hey! i tried the thing you said above but i can't find the one with a .pl extension, .cgi either..
the one that i saw is for .php only...
any help?

 

What distribution of Perl do you have installed? Is it ActiveState?

Also, where do you have Perl installed? Typically this would be C:\Perl\bin\perl.exe.

Assuming you have Perl installed, but neither the .pl extension or the .cgi extension is present, you can add both.

Example...
C:\Perl\bin\perl.exe %s %s (this is what you would add for the executable for the extension).

 

oh i see..
lolz...
i haven't installed perl yet...
any download link?

 

Yeah, for Windows, I would recommend ActiveState, http://www.activestate.com/Products/ActivePerl/.

 

what version should i get?

komodo?
perl dev kit?

 

activeperl allows trial downloads only...
any free versions?

 

i
have already downloaded active perl...i overlooked the link...jejeje

 

Just hit link under Current Release, 5.8.8.

Komodo is an IDE. The dev kit includes tools, which you don't really need.

 

hey!
i uninstalled everything including php, iis, and mysql..
can you help me start again:
here is the scenario.........how can i configure httpd.conf to work with php 5.1.4?mysql?

 

Hi,

Just want to add more option for you,

You could use Easyphp a very wonderful tool for running apche server on your local machine. Its so simple that you start/stop the apache, mysql server etc from the system tray itself. And for running perl script you just need to install active perl as well into your sytem. Thats all
