I have Apache 2.0.55 install along with PHP 4.4.3 on Windows 2k Server.
 
 
I was looking for a great statistics and stats program and found this. Only problem is it requires the Perl Apache module from what I was told. I was also told that Perl and Win32 don't get along. Since Linux isn't an option I am looking for anything that describes how to install Perl in a windows/apache2 environment as there isn't much on the topic. This is the first I have ran into anything Perl so I’m a newbie at this although I have been tinkering with PHP and Apache2 for a couple of years now.
 
 
If anyone knows of anything better than awstats I am open to it. |

Who told you Perl and windows didn't get along?
 
 
I've been running perl on windows for over 2 years.
 
Been coding platform independed perl script for 4 months! There is absolutly nothing wrong with Perl on windows.
 
 
If you don't want perl you could checkout:
 
http://www.sawmill.net/ but it isn't free |

| I actually might try the Perl module install. I'm always open to learning new things with Apache. |

If you want the easy way use ActiveStat perl it comes with a nice module manager. Else compile it yourself   |

I've been looking at that. I also been looking at the Indigoperl package but it clearly unsupported and outdated although it has everything I need. |
