David:
Thanks!
You are right - it works from the cgi-bin directory.
Now why oh why did they ship the mod_perl.conf file that way when they
had created the directory /srv/www/perl-lib to put perl scripts in?
The next question is - how do you fix the file to get it to work?
Contents of the default mod_perl.conf in OpenSuse 10.2 below -
....mod_perl.conf.......
<Directory "/srv/www/perl-lib">
AllowOverride None
Options None
Order allow,deny
Deny from all
</Directory>
<IfModule mod_perl.c>
PerlRequire "/etc/apache2/mod_perl-startup.pl"
ScriptAlias /perl/ "/srv/www/cgi-bin/"
<Location /perl/>
# mod_perl mode
SetHandler perl-script
PerlResponseHandler ModPerl::Registry
PerlOptions +ParseHeaders
Options +ExecCGI
</Location>
ScriptAlias /cgi-perl/ "/srv/www/cgi-bin/"
<Location /cgi-perl>
# perl cgi mode
SetHandler perl-script
PerlResponseHandler ModPerl::PerlRun
PerlOptions +ParseHeaders
Options +ExecCGI
</Location>
# The /cgi-bin/ ScriptAlias is already set up in httpd.conf
</IfModule>
# vim: ft=apache
.............................................................................
Thanks!

Not surprising really. If you look at mod_perl.conf, you'll find the
first few lines are:
<Directory "/srv/www/perl-lib">
AllowOverride None
Options None
Order allow,deny
Deny from all
</Directory>
Meaning that apache will refuse to show any files in there.

Copy it into /cgi-bin/ ? It'll work from there:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> cat /srv/www/cgi-bin/test.pl
#!/usr/bin/perl
print "Content-type: text/plain\n\n";
print "mod_perl 2.0 rocks!\n";
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> telnet localhost 80
Trying 127.0.0.1...
