I had a similar problem running mod_perl with Oracle9i;
In my particular case, the solution was to declare the PERL5LIB env
variable both at the OS side and inside httpd.conf as follows on the
perl section: sentenv PERL5LIB [your PERL lib path]. Another issue was
resolved by passenv PERL5LIB.
Also, you migh check out the apache error_log if you get a good mod_per
start as per the installation manual.
One VERY important step is to check out (again and again) how you did
compile mod_perl as it may be tricky, as per the installation manual:
perl Makefile.PL
make && make test
make install
cd to apache_xx
make install
Finally, you can temporarily disable your startup.pl. I did this because
only had used it to persist the DB connection from Apache startup.
I have discovered that versioning is very impostant for it all. Can't
suggest you any of what Linux are since I'm on Solaris/Sparc. I had
tremendous problems using Apache version 1.3.26 instead of 1.3.12 (!).
Good Luck.
Fabian.
