You haven't got a mod_perl server.  Look in the Guide.

PS:
It's considered very bad form to write for help privately, because the
people who can help very quickly are overloaded by questions from so
many people.  Please address your questions to the mod_perl List.

Have you checked your system clock?
Do you really mean 5.005_02?

 I dont have any idea regarding the clock skew detected error.

In this case it just means that 'make' has noticed something odd about
the various dates and times in your system.  It is very important for
several reasons that you keep the computer clock as accurate as you
can.  There are free utilities such as 'ntpd' to help you to do that.

One reason for needing an accurate clock is that the 'make' utility
uses the time and date information which your system keeps about its
files to decide whether or not to recompile (or whatever other action
may be necessary for a 'target').

Another reason is that when a machine is used to serve Web content the
'latest modification' stamps on files are used to decide whether or not
it is necessary to download fresh copies of the files to the client.

Your system seems to have confusing information about the datestamps on
files or about the system time itself.  If a file was copied when the
system time was wrong, and the system time was subsequently corrected,
then this error could appear.  If the system time is wrong and a file
appears to have a date/time later than the current system time, the
same problem can appear.

Please keep your replies on the List so that everyone has a chance to
read them and comment.

Another source of trouble is compiling on an NFS mounted partition
where.  If the time or timezone on the server does not agree with the
time on the client you will end up with these problems.

I had to deal with this all the time when I used a NetApp Filer with
an old firmware that didn't support ntp..
