Apache HTTP Server, commonly known as Apache, is one of the most widely used web servers in the world, credited for its robustness, flexibility, and open-source nature. Meanwhile, Perl remains a popular programming language, particularly praised for its text manipulation capabilities and CGI scripting. Combining these two via mod_perl, an Apache module, enhances performance for web applications by embedding a Perl interpreter in the Apache server. This setup enables you to write Apache modules entirely in Perl, thus extending the server capabilities with the flexibility of Perl scripting. In this guide, we will explore how to set up Apache with Perl using mod_perl on a Linux system.
