Apache22 not starting

rbizzell · #1 (**permalink**) 10-27-2006

I am getting this error message once I added some lines to a directive in my httpd.conf file. I double checked and made sure their weren't any typos
Snytax error line 468 Invlaid command PerlHandler perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration. Here is what I added ti my httpd.confand now apache won't start. I am using a web interface for my email. I am using Atmail as my web interface for email login

Include etc/apache22/Includes/*.conf

AddHandler cgi-script .pl

SetHandler cgi-script

Where should I insert those lines of code at in the httpd.conf file

In searching for your problem, I've found this construct a lot:

Code:

<IfDefine !APACHE2>
        PerlHandler Apache::Status
</IfDefine>
<IfDefine APACHE2>
        PerlResponseHandler Apache::Status
</IfDefine>

So maybye try PerlResponseHandler instead of PerlHandler.

Where should I insert the line of code at in the httpd.conf

I'd suggest replacing

Code:

PerlHandler ModPerl::Registry

with

Code:

PerlResponseHandler ModPerl::Registry

I am still getting the same error as before

If it's still the same error, then you must still have PerlHandler in there somewhere, otherwise the error would be slightly different.

I am getting the same error only it says PerlResponseHandler
