You might be having problems with the way you are manually setting the HTTP response header. If you want to set them manually with a print statement under mod_perl 2, you should set the following in httpd.conf: 
PerlOptions +ParseHeaders

The preferred and faster method is to write a handler and use the methods provided by Apache2::RequestRec: 
  use Apache2::RequestRec ();
  # Inside your handler...
  $r->content_type('text/html');

You could also use CGI.pm and it should do the right thing: 
use CGI;
print CGI::header();

Does this make a difference? What does the access log show? Is it serving a page? You can also print out $ENV{MOD_PERL} and it should tell you if you are running mod_perl and what version, but you need to get the script running first. :)
