Hi Emma, I've just run this script in a similar environment Win2k/IIS with no problems... This error usually occurs if you're script runs into an infinite loop. But that doesn't appear to be the case here. You might try a simpler script to get started with, such as
#!h:\perl\bin\perl.exe print "Content-type: text/html\n\n"; print "Hi Everybody!"; good luck! -Peter -----Original Message----- From: Emma Scott [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, December 16, 2002 7:50 AM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: Setting up CGI with IIS Hi, I am trying to get an example working to get me started but all I get is a message: "CGI Timeout The specified CGI application exceeded the allowed time for processing. The server has deleted the process." I am working with IIS on NT. I have installed perl and configured IIS to associate .pl and .cgi with the perl executable. I have also given permissions to the user IIS is running as to the cgi file. The file is: #!h:\perl\bin\perl.exe use CGI ':standard'; print header(); print start_html(); for $i (param()) { print "<b>", $i, "</b>: ", param($i), "<br>\n"; } print end_html(); Please help.
