Active Perl Installation on Mac

Chittaranjan
Hi All,

I have a problem installing Active Perl on MAC System. Can any one help me what are the most important points I need to follow while installing Active Perl in a MAC System. If possible please give some helpful sites which will help me for getting this done. I have tried this looking from http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/docs/ActivePerl/5.8/install.html#installing%20activeperl%20on%20mac%20 os%20x%20(x86,%20powerpc) but not able to get to any solution. After installing while I am trying to run any code then it shows me some error message like POSTING is not allowed or something like that. I am sure I do not have any problem in my code.

Thanks,
Chittaranjan :)

Sounds like you are trying to run your perl script as a CGI from a browser. You need an http server installed and running to do that. I have no experience with macs so can't advise you much more than that. Check the apache website and see if they have a mac port of the apache http server or ask on a mac forum for recommendations.
