Package: apache Version: 1.3.29.0.2-4 I am attempting to use libapache-mod-perl to perform a custom configuration. However it appears that apache is not honoring the directory stanza for the virtual host. I believe this is a bug in apache and not in libapache-mod-perl because libapache-mod-perl is returning fails to the apachesubsystem. At this time I do not think this is user error because I've checked against half a dozen examples (including perl.apache.org) and I seem to be right in line.
