Did you compile mod_perl2 yourself or installed it via a package manager, i.e. apt/aptitude/... ? In the first case the FAQs mention that often people forget to 'make install' after 'make'.

Look for a file /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_perl.so. This seems to be the standard location on debian and probably also ubuntu to put the mod_perl binary. If not, search your installation for that file. Must be somewhere if you installed it

Check what the logfiles of apache2 tell you. Did it look for mod_perl and if yes where? If the logfiles don't tell you anything, there must be a file in /etc/apache2 where the module mod_perl.so is loaded, i.e. the line "LoadModule /<somepath>/mod_perl.so" must be somewhere and apache has to execute that line.
