Looks like you didn't tell http.conf where your .pl scripts are.
My httpd.conf includes a :
##Mod_Perl stuff

 Alias /perl/ /var/www/perl/
  <Location /perl/>
      SetHandler perl-script
      PerlResponseHandler ModPerl::Registry
      PerlOptions +ParseHeaders
      Options +ExecCGI
  </Location>
