The we are not able to bring the  site up and running on linux version 
6.2 with perl 5.005 , mod_perl 1.21 , I think the problem is the version 
of the perl that we are using . We have installed perl 5.6 but we are 
not able to figure out how to instruct apache to use that version of 
perl(5.6) .Are there any configuration parameter that could be changed . 
Is the "our" directive used in some of files  new to perl 5.6 because we 
could not find that directive in the most of the perl books we referered 
to.

Make sure you get 5.6.1 not 5.6.0 which is buggy.

You have to re-compile mod_perl.

Yes, it is new in 5.6.  The most recent version of the camel book 
describes it, and so do the man pages.
