Now, when you try to install your modules with CPAN, it may try to install Perl 5.8 in order to resolve dependancies. Tell it 'no' when it asks you if you want to do this. This usually happens when a module becomes integrated into the default perl install in a more recent version. You may have to manually force it to install the older version of the module before it became integrated.

You can view the output from perl -V at http://ptoc.org/register/perl-V.txt It shows perl 5.8.3 because /usr/local/bin shows up first in the PATH.
When I subscribed to web hosting at globalservers.com it came with /usr/bin/perl 5.6.0
After some recomendations from this mail group I did the following to upgrade perl perl -MCPAN -e shell cpan> install CPAN cpan> install Bundle::Apache::ASP
Which installed perl 5.8.3 into the /usr/local/bin directory by default. I thought it would do an upgrade from perl 5.6.0 to 5.8.3. I ended up with two versions of perl.
After much trouble, Spencer at globalservers.com installed perl 5.8.0 into /usr/bin. I'm not sure how to get rid of this mess and start over with one version of perl 5.8.3. If we get to one version of perl, then mod_perl and apache will no doubt have to be recompiled.
It seems that no matter what Spencer does I still get perl 5.6.0 showing up in my ASP error_log and Apache will not restart with ASP stuff in the httpd.conf file.
