Adding to this (which works for me too), here are some
default values (from RHEL) for configs and web root:
main configs - /etc/httpd/conf/
for merged configs- /etc/httpd/conf.d/
apache2 daemon name = httpd
web root - /var/www/html/
mod_perl config - /etc/httpd/conf.d/perl.conf
note that there is no default mod_perl startup
script!
