As an update to this: I looked at the line that the error points to (39 in apache2-perl-startup.pl). It's a "use CGI" command.
I found out that my web server is running mod_perl 1.99 and the CGI module is 3.48 The OTRS FAQ says: "Use the CGI cpan module older then 3.10, if you have to use mod_perl 1.99.x or older. With mod_perl 2.x or newer you have to use the version 3.10 or newer of the CGI cpan module" So, it's possible that this could be the problem. I'll see what could be done.
