A plug'n'play Apache/mod_perl stack sounds to me like an oxymoron,
specially if you also use a database. If you need that power, you must
be able to tune it, maybe not for optimization but certainly for
security. 

I haven't used it myself, but this was mentionned on the list a few days
back :

http://plackperl.org/

Maybe that's more adapted for your needs?

As far as building a stack goes, I agree with André's reply in the other
part of this thread :

"Ah, the beauty of being able to apt-get install libapache2-mod-perl2"

This is what I use:

apt-get install libapache2-request-perl libapreq2 libapache-dbi-perl libapache2-mod-perl2 apache2-mpm-prefork apache2-doc apache2-utils

#edit /etc/apache2/conf.d/security
ServerSignature Off
ServerTokens Minimal

I have to install a few Perl modules that I use, but all that's left to
do is create the virtual hosts files to be up and running.
