Has anyone had any experience installing WebGUI from www.plainblack.com? I am wanting to install it on my server and am running into a lot of issues, like perl modules, mod_perl, cgi permissions, etc. Just thought I would check here to see if anyone has installed it on a machine running DSM.

I have Redhat 9 on my dedicated server, but I am not sure if mod_perl is turned on in Apache or not and am not positive how to add it without messing other stuff up.

So I guess my DSM questions are:
How do I verify that mod_perl is loaded?
If it is not, how do I install it?
What should I watch out for in my httpd.conf and vhosts.conf file so that I do not interfere with anything that DSM requires?
One last question: My existing httpd.conf has AllowOverrides None set. Where do I put specific overrides for a directory or a virtual host, or allow my users to use .htaccess for overrides?

I am kind of a "shared hosting" newbie...meaning that I have no problem getting this thing up and running on a dedicated machine with one website.....however, the fact that I run many different clients on my server, I do not want to impact them too much.

Any help is appreciated.

Mod perl is not installed with the default install of Apache. You will need to recompile Apache with mod_perl support in order to use it.

In an DSM environment, what do I need to do to recompile Apache?
