Following a tip on another monks node "Tricks with DBI", I went the route to start using persistent database connections with Apache and DBI.

I installed the prebuilt mod_perl 1.27 and added:

LoadModule perl_module modules/mod_perl.so

...to Apache's 1.3.x httpd.conf file.

I've also added the:

use Apache::DBI;

...to my pm just above my 'use DBI;' call. However, now that I have this in place, any time that I invoked a DBI call, I get the following message in the error log:

Can't locate object method "module" via package "Apache" (perhaps you forgot to load "Apache"?) at lib/Apache/DBI.pm line 199.

Any idea what the problem is? All the documentation that I've read on the subject does not discuss (in depth or detail) the changes that need to be made to the httpd.conf file if doing a manual installation.

TIA
