Help!

I have tried unsucessfully to set up an Apache server with ASP
functionality. According to instructions I got when downloading ASP.pm
modules from perl.com. It did not work.

After seemingly successful installation, I tried various ways to modify
httpd config files, and the asp (most likely mod_perl)  is not working,
since all the asp files and perl files are displayed in plain text.

I had a full installation of Mandrake RedHat 6.0 with 2.2.9 Linux
kernel, with Apache and mod_perl pre-installed. I copied the tar file
to:
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/i386-linux/apache/
untar and perl Makefile.PL
By then, it reported back that I have many (~10) modules missing. After
going through installing all the modules with CPAN.pm, perl Makefile.PL
finally says ok, and I went ahead with make, make test, make install.
all seems fine.

Errors occur when I tried to config and restart the Apache server. When
I enable DSO, it says libperl.so is garbled, and possibly not a Apache
module DSO. When disabling DSO by commenting out two lines in httpd.conf
(AddModule mod_perl.c and LoadModule perl_module moduels/libperl.so),
Only then httpd starts. when I have <location /perl> in the conf files,
the "PerlHandler    Apache::Registry" is also give out error for invalid
"PerlHandler" command, perhaps mispelled or module not defined in the
configuration.

httpd error log reports that I only have apache 1.3.6 with PHP
Mandrake/Linux running. no mod_perl to be found.

Then the 10 step "sure-install" also failed subsequently.
http://perl.apache.org/guide/index.html


Questions:

Why does the ten step install from apache failed? is it from previous
installtion?
How do I know if a module is defined in a configuration? where? how to?
I heard mixed words on DSO. If I were to statically compile it, how to
disable DSO?

I am lost. Thanks in advance for your help!
