FC2: anyone got mason working?

[Richard Welty <rwelty averillpark net>]

can anyone provide any suggestions on getting mason working
with fedora core 2? i previously asked this on the mason list
and didn't get much beyond 1) looking for mod_perl2 rpms newer
than the ones in the fc2 yum repositories and 2) try downgrading
to apache 1.3.x and the corresponding mod_perl.

i have httpd and mod_perl up to date per the fc2 yum repositories

httpd-2.0.50-2.1
mod_perl-1.99_12-2.1

i've installed MasonX::Apache2Handler, and have the following
in my httpd.conf (/web/na-motor/mason/ is the playpen i want
to use to experiment with mason once i have it running):

PerlModule MasonX::Apache2Handler

#
# Mason testing
#
<Location /web/na-motor/mason/>
    SetHandler perl-script
    PerlHandler MasonX::Apache2Handler
</Location>

when i start httpd with this in place, i get:

[Mon Aug 02 21:50:21 2004] [error] Can't locate object method "get" via package "APR::Table" at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.3/MasonX/Apache2Handler.pm line 567.\nCompilation failed in require at (eval 1) line 3.\n
[Mon Aug 02 21:50:21 2004] [error] Can't load Perl module MasonX::Apache2Handler for server www.krusty-motorsports.com:0, exiting...\n

thanks for any suggestions on how to chase this down,
  richard
