I found the problem
It seems that it was not using the Apache2 directory of modules, it seems that the missing mp2 modules were in there.
1 change to the httpd.conf fixed it.
at the top of my vhost I put:
PerlModule Apache2
Then it found what it needed. This wasn't in the httpd.conf example in getting your feet wet for mp2
http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/user/intro/start_fast.html
Should it be there, is it required or is there something wrong with my setup?
I also had a page that had the -wT switch on the first line which gave an error: can't locate Apache::Warn if I remember correctly. getting rid of the switch and putting in use strict; use warnings; fixed that, but thought I should mention it for the archive in case anyone finds this in the future following the same set up.
The docs are correct for RC5 (they aren't for older unsupported versions). Install that and everything will work as documented.
