my last post had an error, this one is correct: Thanks, adam, for your suggestion:
Cherie, I followed what you did on my own setup (XP home - don't think that it makes a difference although there may be a permissions issue in XP professional) running Sambar V6.1. I didn't get any errors when renaming the pl file. How did you install active perl? Did you make any alterations to smabars config file? I think sambar comes with it's own perl interpreter located at c:\sambar\perl\. At the top of all your pl documents should be #!/usr/bin/perl. I would start by removing active perl and seeing where that gets you. I think there is an uninstaller with that one. Once unistalled, see what happens. Post back when you've done that and let us know how it goes? Adam ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I uninstalled sambar from C:\temp\sambar60-1\ I downloaded it again and reinstalled it. There is a subdirectory named 'docs' and one named 'cgi-bin' and one named 'perl' The sample script called environ.pl works if I use http://127.0.0.1/cgi-bin/environ.pl in IE. But the following script, located at http://127.0.0.1/cgi-bin/simplest.pl will not work on IE: #!C:\temp\sambar60-1\perl\perl.exe -wT print "Content-type: text/html\n\n"; print "Simplest possible script"; END Now I'm getting an "internal system error"! I feel the problem is somehow related to the path is not right. I'm now confused more but I am gaining on it. Thanks to everybody. Cherie P.S. The script fails also if the first line is #!/usr/bin/perl ------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe please go to http://www.sambar.ch/list/
