I tried the IfModule from below as the LoadModule returned the error that it was already loaded.

That would be ideal but its doesn't look easy. My first attempt gave me the error: "Cannot install mod_perl/1.999.22 on top of mod_perl/1.99_16 due to a major API change between mod_perl 1.999_21 and 1.999_22. Please nuke the prior mod_perl installation from your site_lib..." So I did, built mod_perl-2 RC5, and restarted httpd and got: "seg fault or similar nasty error detected in the parent process" No more Apache!!
