+=head2 When starting Apache, an error concerning a missing entry point in mod_perl.so appears.
+
+This might be due to an incompatibility between the installed mod_perl
+files in the Perl tree and the mod_perl.so library within the Apache
+(or Apache2) modules directory. If you're installing mod_perl via ppm, first
+try removing mod_perl (or mod_perl-dev, if you're using the
+development version):
+
+ ppm> remove mod_perl
+
+Next, remove (or move to another location) the mod_perl.so
+library under the Apache (or Apache2) modules directory:
+
+ C:\> del Apache2\modules\mod_perl.so
+
+(assuming F<C:\Apache2> is your top-level Apache2 directory).
+You may have to stop Apache to be able to do this. Then install
+mod_perl via ppm:
+
+ ppm> install mod_perl
+
+and ensure that the post-install script successfully fetches
+and installs F<mod_perl.so>.
=head2 I get a "Can't locate object method ..." error.
