in thread mod_perl installation - missing apache src

I suppose you've downloaded mod_perl-1.31, which is for the older Apache-1 branch.  Try mod_perl-2.0.4 instead.

Update: as you're using the CPAN shell, I guess the problem is that it by default gets the most recently released version, and mod_perl-1.31 is more recent (13 May 2009) than mod_perl-2.0.4 (17 Apr 2008) — kind of unfortunate...

So try: install G/GO/GOZER/mod_perl-2.0.4.tar.gz  from the CPAN shell.

    OK, will do, but wouldn't CPAN automatically get the latest version of mod_perl? I seriously appreciate the help, and the patience. I have never, ever done any type of Sys Admin, server setup, etc. I just be a little old Java/ColdFusion code monkey. Then last week guess what I got thrust upon me...? Welcome to 'The Show' kid...
