I had this same problem on a new install of 2000.  Tried installing Build
522 and it installed ok but it just served the perl file as a texst stream
(not ideal :).

I had a little look around in Internet Service Manager and noticed that the
Application settings didn't seem to be setup correctly so I added them
manually and it works.  The main difference with IIS 5 and IIS 4 is that
when defining Application Mappings in IIS 4 you specified that it was to
ignore PUT and DELETE methods.  In IIS 5 you tell it what to accept.

Off the top of my head (I am using IIS 4 for this not 5).

Right Click Server->Properties->Edit Master WWW Server Properties
Home Directory->Application Settings (Configuration).

In App Mappings click add and enter the following (this is the default but I
am sure someone will say something).

Executable: Path to perl.exe
Extension: .pl
Methods: POST,GET

Add another for .plx (using perlis.dll)

Hope this helps.

Steve
