For ActivePerl builds 8xx (which mp2 requires on Win32), the
repository should be
 http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/cgi-bin/ppmserver?urn:/PPMServer58
The :/PPMServer repository is for builds 6xx, which is why
you didn't find mod_perl 2.

Sorry about this - this was due to a misconfiguration in the
prerequisites section of the libapreq2.ppd (which has now
been fixed), and also from the fact that ppm will only
search for prerequisites in repositories that have been
added to ppm. By adding the (corrected) theoryx5 repository
above, this should now work.

One last thing to check - when installing/upgrading mod_perl
and libapreq2, a post-install script is run to install
mod_perl.so, for mp2, and mod_apreq.so/libapreq2.dll, for
libapreq2, in your Apache2 tree. I've noticed in some cases
these don't get properly installed if there's existing
versions of these files, especially if you happen to be
running Apache at the time of installation. To be sure, you
might remove these files prior to installation via ppm.

These should be OK, as far as running the latest versions.

I assume that a simple script that just uploads a file works
OK?
