Hmmm.  I had an issue at one point on SuSE 9.2 because thier default
apache installation paired Apache 2.x with mod_perl 1.99, which
functions like 2.x but got incorrectly(?) identified as 1.x by some
plugin or other of Catalyst.  Upgrading to a 3rd-party rpm of mod_perl
2.x fixed it.  That's about the only other thing I can think of with
so little info to go on.  Does your mod_perl install work with
anything else that uses it, or is this definitely a Catalyst-specific
issue?
