Thanks. What version of Debian are you using? I have a Digital Ocean droplet running Ubuntu 16.04.1. When I try the above, I get: Package apache2.2-common is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source However the following packages replace it: apache2:i386 apache2 Package apache2-mpm-prefork is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source E: Package 'apache2-mpm-prefork' has no installation candidate E: Package 'apache2.2-common' has no installation candidate I gather Ubuntu has deprecated Apache 2.2. Most distributions seem to be using Apache 2.4 for a long time. So I'm wondering if there's an out-of-box way get Apache 2.4 and mod_perl working without building from source. I gather from the docs that mod_perl 2.0.9 has problems with Perl 5.22. Centos 7 doesn't even offer mod_perl from the default repository, there's a 2.0.8 version from a third-party repository but I can't get anything to actually execute. I gather that with virtual servers like the DigitalOcean droplets and Amazon EC2 instances, once you build everything from source it's easy to replicate the image, so maybe that's the next best thing.
