Hey Mark and Jonathan, thanks a lot for the replies. I'm not a very experienced linux user. Can you guys suggest me the steps I have to follow?
1) Do I have to uninstall Apache too? Not, right? 2) How about Perl? 3) Mark, how do I re-install all CPAN modules? I mean, I do know how to install, using the 'perl -e --MCPAN shell' command. But how do I uninstall them before? All of them, or just the Apache related ones? 4) And how to uninstall mod_perl?
