This was the problem. The mod wasn't enabled but the rule was in there.
I'm still having problems enabling the mod which is a bit worrying but
that's a different story, I may ask for assistance later.

Thanks both for your help.

Virtual Hosts and POST

[Jon Wyatt]

I've just installed mod_perl (of which I have no previous experience) on
my server and configured it apparently correctly for a single site
server. The site runs scripts quite happily, notably POST methods are
accepted.

Then I start setting up virtual hosts, post requests are no accepted on
these hosts.
What directives do I need? I appreciate this might look like an apache
problem but I'm using the pre-mod_perl config file and the only thing
that has changed is the mod_perl addition.

An example virtual host config looks like:-

VirtualHost 192.xx.xx.xx
Options ExecCGI Includes
DocumentRoot /home/billy
ServerAdmin billy@billy
ServerName www.billy.com
Alias /perl/ /home/billy/cgi-bin/
Alias /cgi-bin/ /home/billy/cgi-bin/   
/VirtualHost

And the relevant section in my mod_perl.conf looks like

Location /perl
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler Apache::Registry
Options ExecCGI
all from all
PerlSendHeader On
/Location

I wasn't but I am now and it's made no difference.

--enable-module=rewrite

shouldn't interfere.

Just a hunch, are you using CGI::ReadParse?

When I first used Apache::Registry, ReadParse got me .. for all I know,
it works differently now.
