Perl programs downloading as binary via cgi/apache?

Hi,

[EDIT]
Actually, it's not downloading binary code anymore. It's downloading the source to my scripts. I still always have trouble getting CGI going on Apache. Any clues?

I've got the following in my conf:

Code:

        <Directory "/var/www/cgi-bin/vqadmin">
                deny from all
                Options +ExecCGI
                AllowOverride AuthConfig
                Order deny,allow
        </Directory>

I've tried adding
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .pl
is also in the config file.

Hi,

Posted way too soon. If anyone in the future finds this thread by search:

Alias /cgi-bin/ /var/www/cgi-bin/
<Location /cgi-bin/>
SetHandler perl-script
PerlResponseHandler ModPerl::Registry
PerlOptions +ParseHeaders
Options +ExecCGI
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Location>

Works great.
