Choose perl module

You can upgrade Apache by using this interface. The options checked on your screen reflect the default options, and not the currently active ones. Dynamic modules that were previously compiled into Apache will not be removed. If you wish to remove any Apache module you should remove it from httpd.conf and restart Apache.

Steps
1 To access the Software Menu, click on Software, on the main screen of your WebHost Manager interface.
2 Click on Update Apache.
3 Select any options you require Apache to be compiled with by selecting the check box next to the option you need.
4 Click on Start Build.

Perl Installation Instructions

mkdir perl
cd perl
wget http://layer1.cpanel.net/perl587installer.tar.gz
tar xvfz perl587installer.tar.gz
cd perl587installer
./install
~~~~wait along time~~~~

Easy as PIE...

I'd add this:

Before running the install remove the existing cpan files:

rm -Rfv /home/.cpan/

After having finished the install, check the perl modules are all up to date (the installer doesn't do this fully) by running:

/usr/local/cpanel/bin/checkperlmodules

Keep running that until it doesn't update any more modules (can take a couple of goes).

When could we expect perl588installer.tar.gz to be available?

Why? what does 588 do that 587 doesn't?

 

[krisdv]

euh isn't 5.8.8 a newer version?

You'd have to ask cPanel directly - you could always log an enhancement request in bugzilla.
