Well, what you add here depends on how you compiled mod_perl (DSO or
static) and what you want it to do.

I'm not sure what guide you're referring to there.

If you just want Apache::Registry to emulate CGI in a location
called /perl/, you add something as simple as what's in the "Getting
Your Feet Wet" document:

  PerlModule Apache::Registry
  <Location /perl/>
      SetHandler perl-script
      PerlHandler Apache::Registry
      Options +ExecCGI
      PerlSendHeader On
      allow from all
  </Location>

If you report the problem, someone may be able to help.  See
http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/user/help/help.html#Reporting_Problems

Not unless you did some kind of specialized compile.

If you want it to do that, yes.  Use the Files directive, as described
in the docs I pointed to earlier.

If you want to do that, it's pretty simple.  Nothing mod_perl-specific.
Just use the standard DirectoryIndex stuff.

ExecCGI, as shown in those docs.

It's hard to tell what should be changed.  The information you're asking
about is there, as far as I can see.  Can you explain where you're
getting lost?
