You are not alone. with 2.4, you have to relearn all the quirks in the
configuration from when you first started using mod perl v2.

Did you install it via a package manager or download source from the
AuthCookie github?

You can find that file here:

Basically, this error is saying that the authentication is required, but
the handlers didn't run properly, or weren't configured properly .

Here is an example that I have:

PerlAddAuthzProvider user Apache2::AuthCookie24->authz_handler
<Location /perl-status>
      PerlAuthenHandler Apache2::AuthCookie24->authenticate
      AuthName LDAPLogin
      AuthType Apache2::AuthCookie24
      require group admins

      ....set perl handler ....
