Try $app=path to perl
And $suffix (bad choice of name, it's the arguments) as your Perl script
path and arguments.

I think that will solve you.  Untested, just a thought.

Subject: need a little something on windows ala Unix

Group,

I am using Win32::Spawn (or trying to) from a cgi script to run another
script so that the user can carry on with what they are doing while my
script runs off and does something.  

Here is my code and here is the error that I am getting - which I don't
understand because I can find the script at the comand prompt. I am in
windows 2000 box.  - thanks.


        my ($suffix) = @_;
        my $pid;
        my $app =
q!C:\web\cgi-bin\PhoneListUpdate\update_from_voicemail\disable_mailbox.p
l!;
        if(!(Win32::Spawn($app, $suffix, $pid))){
                die " could not spawn $app  - $!";
        }
}
        

could not spawn
C:\web\cgi-bin\PhoneListUpdate\update_from_voicemail\disable_mailbox.pl
-
No such file or directory at c:\web\cgi-bin\PHONEL~1\mod.pl line 371.
