Topic: Webgui & Metadot

[fixit]

has anyone else have trouble installing these packages
from http://ergin.dyndns.org/webgui/

webgui and metadot

I seem to run into trouble at step 8

 8. Generate /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
[root@smeserver601 httpd.conf]# /sbin/e-smith/expand-template /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
[root@smeserver601 httpd.conf]# service httpd restart
Stopping httpd: [ OK ]
Starting httpd: [ OK ]

this is the error i get

nfoot@server httpd.conf]# /sbin/e-smith/expand-template /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.con
[root@server httpd.conf]# service httpd restart
Stopping httpd:                                            [   OK   ]
Starting httpd: Syntax error on line 816 of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf:
Invalid command 'PerlHandler', perhaps mis-spelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration
                                                           [ FAILED ]
/conf/httpd.conf:d.conf]# Starting httpd: Syntax error on line 816 of /etc/httpd
bash: Starting: command not found

line 816 from httpd.conf

<Location       "/webgui">
        SetHandler      cgi-script
        PerlHandler     Apache::Registry
        PerlSendHeader  On
        Options         +ExecCGI
        DirectoryIndex  index.pl

is their an easrier way to install these packages, I'm going around in circles.

Thanks in advanced

You don't have mod_perl installed and configured.
