Are you installing on top of an existing Apache directory? In other words, was /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf created by the install, or did it already exist before you built Apache? It looks like the conf file might expect Apache to have been built with DSO support but it wasn't in actuality. In case you haven't seen this already, you might take a look at this guide to installing Apache with mod_perl and mod_ssl: http://perl.apache.org/guide/install.html#mod_perl_and_mod_ssl_openssl_ The options it suggests should work for you here. --Ade.
