Upgrading Perl on HP-UX 11.0

[John Love_3]

I have a D class server with HP-UX 11.0 and when I do a perl -v I get:
#perl -v

This is perl, version 4.0

$RCSfile: perl.c,v $$Revision: 4.0.1.8 $$Date: 1993/02/05 19:39:30 $
Patch level: 36

Perl may be copied only under the terms of either the Artistic License or the

Now, I have a DEPOT file with Perl 5.6.0 and when I install it I still get Perl 4.0 with the perl -v command.

How do I get rid of the 4.0 and have the 5.6.0 version work? The install goes fine, no errors.

Help please. I need a web server that uses this newer version of perl (Apache is already installed on this server).

Thanks!

John

Sorry, wrong forum.
I'll re-post this in the General forum

Hi John!

HP-UX comes with a very old version of Perl (part of OS-Core). It is placed in /usr/contrib/bin. I renamed it and put my /opt/perl5 in PATH.
