First off...thanks for addressing my issues....

My directories look exactly like that. First I went to the apache directory and ran the configure to enable DSO. Then I went to the modperl directory and compiled mod perl with the apache with options outlined above....

Ok. I'll recompile them as another user. How does root user affect things? (appears to be a perl issue still see below)
% perl Makefile.PL APACHE_SRC= /dloads/apache_mod_perl/apache_1.3.28/src \
DO_HTTPD=1 USE_APACI=1 EVERYTHING=1 APACHE_PREFIX=/usr/local/httpd_perl
% make
% make test
% su

I need Apache::request and DBD::mysql rsn, but I guess that is another issue all together...allthough I though it might be a sign that something else is fowl if they won't make.

yes...seeing as I wasn't sure whether it passed everything...and the make all test wouldn't run again; then I repeated my build/install steps....
interesting. its failing a test; output: (I'm fairly sure this wasn't the result the other day):
Failed 1 test script out of 667, 99.85% okay.
### Since not all tests were successful, you may want
to run some of
### them individually and examine any diagnostic
messages they produce.
### See the INSTALL document's section on "make test".
### You have a good chance to get more information by
running
### ./perl harness
### in the 't' directory since most (>=80%) of the
tests succeeded.
### You may have to set your dynamic library search
path,
### LD_LIBRARY_PATH, to point to the build directory:
### setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH `pwd`; cd t; ./perl
harness
### LD_LIBRARY_PATH=`pwd`; export LD_LIBRARY_PATH;
cd t; ./perl harness
### export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=`pwd`; cd t; ./perl
harness
### for csh-style shells, like tcsh; or for
traditional/modern
### Bourne-style shells, like bash, ksh, and zsh,
respectively.
