PSGI application with Apache2 using Plack::Handler::Apache2 results in 'not found' - perl

Question

first time poster, long time lurker here.
Im using a tiny PSGI application in plackup, but id like to switch to Apache2 for subdomains. I run the application with 'plackup /home/ath88/work/kolle/script/dir.psgi -port 80'. It runs perfectly on plackup. The application is quite simple and can be found at https://github.com/ath88/Kolletilmelding/blob/master/script/dir.psgi
But, i would like to run Apache2 instead of plackup for obvious reasons. For this i want to use Plack::Handler::Apache2. My VirtualHost looks as follows:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName aths.dk
ServerAdmin asbjoern#gmail.com
<Location />
SetHandler perl-script
PerlResponseHandler Plack::Handler::Apache2
PerlSetVar psgi_app /home/ath88/work/kolle/script/dir.psgi
</Location>
</VirtualHost>
Apache2 restarts fine. But when i attempt to visit aths.dk i mere get a 404 not found. The directory for the application is correct, since it results in a 500 Internal Error. Looking in the apache2/error.log i get this: [Irrelevant, see edit]
[Wed Oct 05 21:32:16 2011] [notice] caught SIGTERM, shutting down
[Wed Oct 05 21:32:17 2011] [notice] Apache/2.2.12 (Ubuntu) mod_perl/2.0.4 Perl/v5.10.0 configured -- resuming normal operations
This happens every time i restart Apache2.
I have spent 4 hours trying to debug this. I am totally mindboggled.
Edit: Turns out the SIGTERM was from stopping Apache2 for restarting. It doesn't happen when i start it. Silly me.

Maybe your setup will benefit from a reverse HTTP proxy setup.
You can start your Plack application manually, and you can bind it to 127.0.0.1:9001 instead of 127.0.0.1:80, in which case you need a privileged user ( TCP port below 1024 ).
Then a reverse HTTP proxy config that should work could be like this one:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName aths.dk
ServerAdmin asbjoern#gmail.com
ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/aths.dk-error.log
TransferLog /var/log/apache2/aths.dk.log
DocumentRoot /var/www/aths.dk
ProxyRequests Off
<Proxy *>
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
</Proxy>
ProxyPass / http://127.0.0.1:9001/
ProxyPassReverse / http://127.0.0.1:9001/
</VirtualHost>
