REVISED

I inherited this apache server from a Perl shop that I now work. When this web server was on ubuntu 14.04, I had no issues starting apache. I upgraded the server to ubuntu 18.04 and now apache does not start, here is the error

apache2: Syntax error on line 225 of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf: Syntax error on line 61 of /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/vhost.conf: no macro defined before Use

line 225 of main apache config

224 # Include the virtual host configurations:
225 IncludeOptional sites-enabled/*.conf

line 61 of vhost file

    <IfModule perl_module>
    Use Pconf /home/xxxx/xxxxx/xxxxx/htdocs 4 10 Hawaii
</IfModule>

This is where I am at a standstill, I have enabled the macro package.

  Module macro already enabled

I can't start apache so there are no errors in the logs.

The error is trying to tell you that you need to define the macro Pconf before using a macro named Pconf.

The mod_macro: Usage documentation has an example that should help get you going.
