This is not a fix, this just makes sure that you don't attempt to run
mod_perl modules if you haven't configured mod_perl.
This checking is placed into startup.pl. That's the file that you
PerlRequire from httpd.conf.
Another simpler approach is to put the following at the top of the
startup.pl file:
die "no mod_perl :(" unless $ENV{MOD_PERL};
You problem is that you probably haven't configured Apache to run
mod_perl or you may even not installed the mod_perl at all. The mod_perl
guide features a section with 1001 ways to check that mod_perl is
running. See the ttp://perl.apache.org/guide/install.html chapter
Hope this clear this issue.
