Monks,

I've been working on this all day with no luck. I installed mod_perl via CPAN and it seems to be installed fine. 
cpan> install Apache
CPAN: Storable loaded ok
Going to read /root/.cpan/Metadata
  Database was generated on Thu, 10 Jan 2002 08:13:21 GMT
Apache is up to date.
 
cpan> install mod_perl
mod_perl is up to date.

[download]
but when I go to start apache, I get this error: 
[root@localhost bin]# ./apachectl start
Syntax error on line 3 of /usr/local/everything/everything.apache.conf
+:
Invalid command 'PerlModule', perhaps mis-spelled or defined by a modu
+le not included in the server configuration
./apachectl start: httpd could not be started

[download]
Here is what the everything.apache.conf file looks like: 
AddHandler perl-script .pl
 
PerlModule Apache::DBI
PerlModule CGI
PerlSetupEnv On

[download]
This is being called from /usr/local/apache/httpd.conf as such: 
Include /usr/local/everything/everything.apache.conf

[download]
I did a find for mod_perl.so on my system, but it didn't produce any results. Any ideas what is wrong?

Thanks,
Dru
