mod_perl help

[abhishek agrawal <ab...@lycos.com>]

Hi,
 
      I have been trying to run perl scripts on apache using mod_perl. I initially had perl5.6.0 which came with the Redhat. I then configured my apache and got simple per scripts running. Then i realised that most of the perl scripts which will eventually run on my machine are wirtten in Activeperl, i installed activeperl ( for linux).

but then when i tried running perl scripts which used modules such as Date::Calc, i get errors such as 
"Cant find loadabel object module "

I am sure that i have installed the modules correctly using the ppm. 

Someone suggested me that the mod_perl is built using different perl (perl5) and the perl which is running on my machine is different (Active perl). Hence it is causing problem. So i removed the perl5 completely from my machine and tried building mod_perl again. But when i tried bulding mod_perl again, i gave me and error saying that "it need perl5.6.0"

Does Active perl does not work properly with mod_perl? If yes, can you tell me where exactly am i making mistake.

I have been stuck with this problem for more than 2 weeks now, and any help will be greatly appreciated.

yours truely,
Abhishek
