Ahh...  The famous "Apache-won't-start-yet-logs-no-error" bug!  I've been
there numerous times.

This is almost always related to mod_perl, specifically.  Two things to
verify:

1. Is Apache/mod-perl compiled with the same Perl as is installed on the
server?
2. On start-up, can Apache/mod-perl find the modules you're trying to load?

Often, this problem can be solved by re-compiling Apache/mod-perl on the
server on which you want to run.  Compiling Apache/mod-perl can be a bit
tricky.  For starters, you want to avoid compiling mod_perl as a DSO -- this
is historically an unstable configuration.  Here is what my Apache/mod-perl
looks like when it is compiled:

        $ ./httpd -l
        Compiled-in modules:
          http_core.c
          mod_so.c
          mod_perl.c

To consistently build a working Apache/mod-perl, I've written a simple
Makefile which I'd be happy to share.  (Email me off-list if you're
interested.)

I would also check in with the mod_perl mailing list.  This is a well-known
problem, and they probably have more astute suggestions than I.

TTYL,
