Xampp with perl and mod_perl

[joh261]

Hi,
I 'm a new user of xampp,
All installation on my Windows 2003 server have done succesfully. I got active perl and I don't know how to install the active perl with Xampp?

By far the easiest way for assured compatibility is to download the Perl Addon and follow the installation instructions in the readme-addon-perl.txt file accessible from this location:
http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-windows.html#644

Read the note in red if you want or need to use Mod_Perl. If you don't need or want to use it then ignore this message as it will not affect the installation of the addon.

If you need to use Mod_Perl then you will have to install XAMPP version 1.6.3a not 1.6.4 from the XAMPP SourceForge Archive located from a link on this page at the top, as this 1.6.3a version uses a version of Apache that is compatible with Mod_Perl.

BTW the Perl Addon uses Active Perl from ActiveState.

Here is some reading at Apache about CGI that may come in handy.

Happy Perling.
