You don't define /successful/. How well you succeed depends on what your go=

A few that I consider "successful":
cPanel - cpanel.net
apple.com
amazon.com
The navy uses perl to "synchronize watches":
http://tycho.usno.navy.mil/cgi-bin/timer.pl
A few of our higher end communications clients use Perl exclusively for
their VoIP systems and customer management. (sorry, we signed a paper
that said we'd not reveal any info about it so mum's the word ;p)
I also have advanced knowldge of a certain companie's 10th anniversary
celebration that involves releasing an up till now internal/private Perl
based system for general use.
I can't elaborate or they'd have to kill me but all I can say is, I
can't freaking wait to be able to use that "successful application of Perl"!

| For web application,I think Java is more excellent than Perl or mod_perl.
I use earthlink's mailbox as one of my primary account,this webmail application is developed under Java,it's really good and fast,better than any Perl/CGI webmail that I have seen.Pobox's web application is implemented with mod_perl,it seems good too.

1. I think that server-side Java for web development is one of the
supidest ideas I've ever heard. Here's a language for which one of the
top three reasons it exists is portability, and someone thinks that
qualifies it as the ultimate server-side web development language. Good
plan, folks.
2. I think Java applets are the bane of my existence, from time to time
at least.
3. I think your statement is entirely off-topic for this discussion
thread.
