with "mod_php" it's part of apache. Same with mod_perl.

He thinks I'm going to write mod_perl into my tube script!!
That would be great for servers that don't even install mod_perl.

mod_perl is not a programming language; it's configuring the PERL interpreter to run as part of apache.
This is done by the hosting company, not me.

The standard Apache::Registry module can provide 100x speedups for your existing CGI scripts and reduce the load on your server at the same time. A few changes to the web server's config is all that is required to run your existing CGI scripts at lightning speed.
The reality here is tubecgi works absolutely great and I'm running five tubes
on one shared account with my regular host.

I just don't want to deal with all the mis-information that people think is fact anymore.
So if noone uses my script, I don't have to deal with it. Hence this post.


These two links explain it all :

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mod_perl

http://www.revsys.com/writings/modperl.html


If a host does not want to install mod_perl just like they install "mod_php" then is it
really my fault?


I've got something totaly differrent in the works and tubecgi is not where I even want to
spend my time now.
So, it's a blesssing to have people stop using it, even though they can.
