Perl Scripting in Shared Website Hosting
Perl is available with all shared website hosting services that we offer and you're able to execute any kind of .pl file which you upload in your account with the File Manager of the Control Panel or an FTP program. The latter will allow you to build an Internet site with all of the characteristics that you'd like your visitors to have, but PHP can't offer. You'll be able to execute a script either manually or automatically through a cron job. Our plans come with numerous Perl modules which you can employ and you can see the whole list in your website hosting account in addition to the path that you should include in your scripts, so as to be able to access these modules. If you would like to execute a Perl/CGI script through a cron job but your plan does not offer this feature, you'll be able to add as many cron jobs as you need via the Add Upgrades/Services link on the left-hand side of the web hosting Control Panel.
Perl Scripting in Semi-dedicated Hosting
You can use every Perl-based app, including CGI scripts, with any of the Linux semi-dedicated services that we provide as Perl is supported on all of our servers. You can make each .pl file executable by setting the proper UNIX permissions for it via the Hepsia Control Panel or through any FTP client and in accordance with the actual script, it may be executed manually as a result of some action the client performs on your site, or automatically by a cron job that you can create in your account. Provided you want to employ a script that you've found online and it requires particular modules to be present on the server, you're able to take full advantage of our vast library that features over 3000 modules. In this way, you can be sure that any Perl application that you generate or find on the web will work perfectly on our end.
