RPM install of mod_perl OK but Apache can't find module
Problem:
When using RPM to install mod_perl on a RH6 linux server, the rpm installs okay but Apache still can't load the module, complaining that the file does not exist. This solution may not apply to all combinations of Apache/Linux/mod_perl
 
Solution:
The rpm fails to install the .so file in the directory where Apache expects it.

Manually "cp /usr/lib/apache/libperl.so /etc/httpd/modules"
