I believe DirectoryIndex is what you're looking for: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_dir.html#directoryindex
I thought so, too. I had tried, unsuccessfully: DirectoryIndex linch
The directive takes a local url as the argument. Yours, I guess, would be simply DirectoryIndex /eumel/linch
This doesn't work either.
I'll give you a heads up though, you may have difficulty figuring out what directory you're actually supposed to index from inside your perl script.
I should have clarified that it is not the task of my Perl script to index the directory. I merely wanted it to show up as the default in the same way that index.html shows up when present (and configured as DirectoryIndex).
Also, just an FYI, it looks like you might be able to use the UserDir directive to accomplish what you're now doing with Aliases.
Thanks for the hint, but in this case, I simply have Apache configured to serve up my development environment. When deployed, the URL part is going to look like this, with the filesystem part pointing elsewhere. (Provided laziness won't make me leave it as it is.) Which reminds me that I've often wished Apache had a feature like: Var EumelRoot /home/milu/www/eumel Alias /eumel $EumelRoot/www <Directory $EumelRoot> ... <Directory $EumelRoot/bla> ...
