Re: apache2 or mod_perl2 oddball error

I think Perrin is right, I've never seen -compile syntax used in
PerlModule directives.  Move the PerlModule directives into a
startup.pl file.

In your httpd.conf:

LoadModule perl_module        modules/mod_perl.so
PerlPostConfigRequire /my/startup.pl

In your startup.pl:

#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;

# make sure we are in a sane environment.
$ENV{MOD_PERL} or die "GATEWAY_INTERFACE not Perl!";

use Apache2::Const -compile => ':common';

... add any other PerlModule statements in the 'use Module' format.
