Perl Scripting in Hosting
You are able to use CGI scripts and applications written in Perl with all of our Linux hosting as we have a rich library more than 3000 modules installed on our custom cloud website hosting platform to make sure that all of the dependencies for a custom or a pre-made script are there any time you need them. You'll be able to execute a .pl file in two ways - either manually via your website, or automatically via a cron job which will run a certain file regularly. In case the plan that you've obtained doesn't come with cron jobs included, you're able to include as many as you would like from the Upgrades menu inside your Hepsia website hosting Control Panel. Also, you have to make sure that the script file has the needed executable permissions. Using our shared plans, you'll be able to build a website with as many functions and features as you like.
Perl Scripting in Semi-dedicated Hosting
Perl is supported on all our servers, so in case you aquire a semi-dedicated server account through our company, you will be able to use any custom or ready-made CGI script or another Perl-based web app without difficulty. To save your time and efforts, we have also set up several thousand modules which you are able to take advantage of. You can see the path to the library in your Hepsia web hosting Control Panel and add any module within your scripts. Some third-party scripts, for example, require specific modules, in order to operate efficiently. Executing a .pl file, custom or ready-made, can be achieved in two ways - manually, if a website visitor performs a specific action on your website, or automatically, when you create a cron job from your account. In the second case, you'll be able to choose the interval based on what your script will do and how often you want it to run - once a day, hour, minute, etc.
