cannot locate APACHE::SESSION::FILE

[babisa]

Hi,
I am using windows xp. apache 2.2 perl 5.5.5 and modperl
when I run a script I get an error on error.log:

Can't locate Apache/Session/File.pm in @INC (@INC contains: c:/

http://www/orders/cgi-lib

C:/Perl/lib C:/Perl/site/lib .

I have loaded modperl in the conf file.

What could it be?

Looks like you are missing the "Apache/Session/File" perl module.

http://search.cpan.org/~cwest/Apache-Session-1.81/Session/File.pm

If that's missing there's probably more ...

Fire up the cpan shell to install modules

perl -MCPAN -e shell

Set the flag to follow dependencies

Thank you for the above information. From your replies I understand that I am in deep waters.
I thought that if Modperl was loaded, Apache::Session module is a part of it.
However I went to cpan and I searched for apache, session etc but I did not find anything to fit the file I need.
Let me, if I may, show you the scripts that cause this Error:

########## index.cgi ######
#!c:/perl/bin/perl
use CGI;
$query = new CGI;
print $query->redirect("rxcsm.cgi");
###########################


######### rxcsm.cgi ########
#!c:/perl/bin/perl
use c:/

http://www/orders/cgi-lib

# this is where utils.pl resides
use vars qw ($q $dbh $c_session );
use strict;
use HTML::Template;
use utils;
.
.
#############################


######## utils.pl ###########
package utils;

use strict;
use CGI;
use Time::Local;

use Apache::Session::File;
.
.
#############################

The error apparently is comming from this last line.
I don't think I need to add that i am a novice on the subject.

mod_perl, are you sure it's installed at the same path as c:/perl/bin/perl?

Thanks Paul.
I have made sure that the modperl is in my perl directory.
I now get a new error, perhaps related,which comes from the configuration file.
The Error is:
failed to resolve handler `ModPerl::Registry': Can't load 'C:/Perl/site/lib/auto/Apache2/ServerUtil/ServerUtil.dll' for module Apache2::ServerUtil: load_file:The specified module could not be found at C:/Perl/lib/XSLoader.pm line 70.\n at C:/Perl/site/lib/Apache2/XSLoader.pm line 30\nCompilation failed in require at C:/Perl/site/lib/ModPerl/RegistryCooker.pm line 29.\nBEGIN failed--compilation aborted at C:/Perl/site/lib/ModPerl/RegistryCooker.pm line 29.\nCompilation failed in require at (eval 5) line 3.\n\t...propagated at C:/Perl/lib/base.pm line 85.\nBEGIN failed--compilation aborted at C:/Perl/site/lib/ModPerl/Registry.pm line 25.\nCompilation failed in require at (eval 4) line 3.\n

The file Serverutil.dll is in the correct directory.

The configuration file is:
