Perl modules installed on shared hosts?

Hi,

I'm on the look for a new place for my website(s) since I'm growing out of my current one and don't want to pay for the next step just yet.

It's mainly a hobby site that has begun to grow bigger, so I definitely need a stable host with good global connectivity.

My site is currently running on Apache with mod_perl, but I can convert to "CGI mode" before moving (and will).

My question is: Can I see a list of available perl modules here at HG?

I use the following modules:

• Apache::Session::MySQL
• Data::Dumper
• DBI::MySQL
• Encode
• HTML::Mason
• LWP::Simple
• Mail::CheckUser
• Mail::Sendmail
• MasonX::Request::WithApacheSession
• Text::Diff
• Time::Format
• Time::HiRes
• Time::Zone
• XML::Simple

I guess the most important one is:

HTML::Mason

...as that is what ties everything together.

And of course the:

MasonX::Request::WithApacheSession

...but that one might be more flexible, as it's just a shortcut for making sessions easier.

I would of course be thrilled if I didn't have to change too much in my current code base. But I guess that's why I'm here writing this :)

Thank you in advance for replying.


Best regards

We have a large number of perl modules installed on our servers. If you find that you need extra perl modules installed we can do this as long as the perl modules are listed on cpan.org.

To have the modules installed send an email to support@hostgator.com with your account details and the modules you need installed.

Thank you for a quick and precise answer.

I only use CPAN modules for obvious reasons (like this), so that's perfect.

With a 45 days trial period - how wrong can it go?

Thank you again. I will return when I have tested my setup on a vanilla Apache in my sandbox first, so I am prepared for a CGI environment over my existing mod_perl one.
