Dear
All,
Thanks very much in
advance for any assistance I am given.
This is my first post,
this is my first time trying to run a Perl script.
I am on a Windows 2000
Server (SP1), running IIS5, have installed ActivePerl (build 620), have my
"stats.pl" file in my "cgi-bin" directory, the script runs fine from a CMD
prompt, but when I browse to the URL, I get "page cannot be found". I do
not understand how the webserver can be saying this since I know it
exists. I believe that the ActivePerl installation was perfectly
successful, I double-checked that "*.pl" was associated with "perl.exe" and that
"*.plx" with PerIIS.exe" and they are. I'm not trying "*.plx" right now though,
since I have read that that is more complicated. I guess I'd do it later if I
thought I could pull it off since it is supposed to be faster. I do not know if
I ought to simply go right to "*.plx" or not right now. My hunch tells me to
stick to "*.pl" since I'm so new at this. I also believe that I have the
cgi-bin directory correctly set to allow scripts and
executables.
Can any one point me in
the correct direction on this one.
Thanks so
much.
Please reply to both me
and the group.
Thanks.
Jason
