RE: Installation problem - Invalid command 'PerlSetEnv'

This has nothing to do with it, you cannot run mod_perl on command line, 
since mod_perl is an extension of apache. In order to test it you have to 
try to access the scripts via apache, ie browse to them.

Please read the documentation on how to enable mod_perl in apache:

http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/user/config/config.html

A good start would probably be reading httpd.conf to see if the required 
directives are there.

If mod_perl is properly configured, the directive "PerlSetEnv" will be 
understood.
