That suggests you already have installed mod_perl.  Did you also
configure it in Apache?

See the mod_perl documentation at http://perl.apache.org/, in
particular http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/user/config/config.html#Enabling_mod_perl

That really depends on how you installed Apache.

Note that Apache has it's own mailing lists -
http://httpd.apache.org/userslist.html.
