I actually have a question along these lines.... I'm new to mod_perl myself, and I've just installed a new setup with Apache2 and the mod_perl2 beta.
That's all working well and my old cgi-bin type stuff works under mod_perl great. Now I'm trying to get more into the mod_perl specific stuff and when I: use Apache::DBI I'm getting a can't find Apache.pm To use Apache::DBI do I need the old mod_perl 1 also installed running some kind of "dual mode"? Or is that not even an option since I'm running Apache2. I'm learning quick so if this is covered someplace just give me a quick pointer.
