We run a few EC2 instances with mod_perl setup and afaik there is no public image that gives you an out-of-the-box system. We use Debian images by Alestic (sadly these are not updated any more but I guess one could use their Ubuntu images instead) that give you a basic Debian setup. From there to a working apache/mod_perl it's just a few apt-get install calls (that can be executed automatically when running a new instance) and deploying your application so this should be as far as you can get towards mod_perl. Apart from that I don't think anyone could package a mod_perl image for you that can be used out-of-the-box at all. A usual mod_perl setup needs certain perl-modules in place, a setup.pl, special apache-configurations etc. Hendrik
