Check out http://www.linux-sottises.net/en_apache_install.php Using both PHP and mod_perl together has caused problems in the past (http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=00/11/21/1720242), but I think they will play nicely now. FYI, I ditched mod_perl in favor of a PHP a while ago. If I really need perl for a website do it with the cgi-bin directory.
