Description Martin Frodl 2015-04-10 08:36:59 UTC 
Description of problem:

This is a snippet from /opt/rh/httpd24/root/etc/httpd/conf.d/perl.conf right after the installation of rh-perl520-mod_perl:

...
 25 
 26 # This will allow execution of mod_perl to compile your scripts to
 27 # subroutines which it will execute directly, avoiding the costly
 28 # compile process for most requests.
 29 #
 30 #Alias /perl /var/www/perl
 31 #<Directory /var/www/perl>
 32 #    SetHandler perl-script
 33 #    PerlResponseHandler ModPerl::Registry
 34 #    PerlOptions +ParseHeaders
 35 #    Options +ExecCGI
 36 #</Directory>
 37 
...

The paths /var/www/perl on lines 30 and 31 should both be changed to /opt/rh/httpd24/root/var/www/perl. Sure, it is 'just a comment' and not breaking anything by default. Still, I am positive that users will appreciate the possibility to just uncomment lines 30 through 36 and make mod_perl work with httpd24 right away, without further fiddling and tweaking.
