Hi, I need help configure my Apache with mod_perl.

I have just installed mod_perl on via sudo apt-get install -y libapache2-mod-perl2 on Ubuntu 18. I am having a hard time figuring out what the next steps our to test perl script. I am looking at https://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/user/handlers/http.html and trying to understand what would go in my virtual hosts file and what else I need to configure to get perl script working for Apach24 setup.

I've tried a few virtual host directives such as the one found here (with my own settings), but with no luck: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Apache_HTTP_Server/mod_perl 

<VirtualHost perlwebtest:80>
    Servername perlwebtest
    DocumentRoot /srv/http/perlwebtest
    ErrorLog /var/log/httpd/perlwebtest-error.log
    CustomLog /var/log/httpd/perlwebtest-access.log combined
    <Directory /srv/http/perlwebtest>
        AddHandler perl-script .pl
        PerlResponseHandler ModPerl::Registry
        Options +ExecCGI
        PerlOptions +ParseHeaders
        AllowOverride All
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from all
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

Currently, its not rending any of Perl Script. I feel like I've missed an obvious step. Any ideas of what I should try next?
