Re: FAQ 3.19 How can I make my CGI script more efficient?

I have a perl script located here,

c:/my/path/to/users/callgirl/roberta/roberta.cgi

My roberta software produces html, src links to graphics,
and employs a good number of databases and adjuncts.

My script alias for mod_perl is, in part,

ScriptAlias /perl-bin/ "perl-bin/"
<Location /perl-bin>

What directive would you, personally, add to my httpd.conf file
to run roberta.cgi via mod_perl?

Somehow I got the impression that you had studied the mod_perl docs. Anyway, I'm not Brian, but I'd try something along these lines (note: 'Alias' instead of 'ScriptAlias'):

    Alias /perl-bin/ "c:/my/path/to/users/callgirl/roberta"
    PerlRequire "c:/my/path/to/startup.pl"
    <Location /perl-bin>
        SetHandler perl-script
        PerlResponseHandler ModPerl::Registry
        PerlOptions +ParseHeaders
        Options +ExecCGI
    </Location>

Given that, then call the script as

    http://my.domain.com/perl-bin/roberta.cgi
