convert cgi to mod_perl

[Alex Shi]

Hi,

I have made my Apache work correctly with mod_perl and created
a deploy directory for it. It was tested OK. Also I have some old perl
cgi scripts and want to convert them to mod_perl. Can I just do it by
moving those scripts to the deploy dirtory and removing the shibang
line from the old scripts? Thanks in advance!

Did you read the documentation for mod_perl? Everything you're
looking for is there already. Check out <URL:http://apache.perl.org/docs/>.
In your case, you want the "CGI to mod_perl Porting" page at
<URL:http://apache.perl.org/docs/1.0/guide/porting.html>.

Freudian slip, or are you just maniacally egotistical? : )
