I think maybe you need to check your typing carefully. If you mail
your code I can check it for you very quickly.

I think the book has some mistakes. Try `lookup_file()' instead of
`lookup_uri()' in the first line of the code on page 128 and put
return OK if $r->header_only;
instead of
return OK unless $r->header_only;
at the fourth line, the same as in the fragment of code lower down
on that same page.
When you get to the second code fragment, don't forget to import
DOCUMENT_FOLLOWS by adding it at the top of the file:
use Apache::Constants qw(:common REDIRECT DOCUMENT_FOLLOWS);
