Apache Configuration using PERL

[nicklas.bornstein]

Hi,

Im trying to use PERL, generating some of the Apache Configuration.
I have loaded the module mod_perl, and then do something like;

<Perl>
print 'ErrorDocument 404 http://www.google.dk';
</Perl>

in my httpd.conf - but the Apache Configuration don't evaluate on the
print, it just print out the line in the comand promt.

I have seach Google and found some example using somthing like;
use Apache:erlSections();

but I can't figure it out. If I use the PerlSections(), I get the
error;
"Can't locate Apache/PerlSections.pm in @INC ...".

How do I simply write some configuration line in my httpd.conf, using
Perl? Thanks!

What do you expect it to do? Seems like it's working just fine.

Check out this page:

http://modperlbook.org/html/ch04_04.html

4.4.1. Constructing <Perl> Sections

=====
Instead of printing out Apache configration directives, you should do
something like:

<Perl>
@ErrorDocument = (
[ 404 => 'http://www.google.dk' ],
[ 500 => '/error.html' ],
);
</Perl>

(untested)
