Incomplete set of HTTP Headers
Please forgive me if this is a rather stupid question, however I am new to Perl and Activestate perl on win32. My problem is as follows:No matter what program I run (be it mine or a downloaded app) I always seem to run into the exact same error (Useing IIS6) "The specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete set of HTTP headers."I have followed installation instructions to the tee as well as searched and followed guids. Even the example perl applications from the Default install do not function correctly. I have tried on diffrent installs of Windows 2003, and Windows XP Pro, they yeilded the same results. This must be a simple matter to fix, because it is numorus and I have yet to find any documentation explaining a fix for it.For problem information I have:Windows Server 2003 Standard SP1Perl, v5.8.7 for MSwin32-x86-multi-thread [build 815]Running on IIS 6.0Thank you for your time and help. ___ Perl-Win32-Users mailing list Perl-Win32-Users@listserv.ActiveState.com To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs
Re: Driving a POS printer from Perl
Printing gibberish may be a sign that one or more settings may be
incorrect, potentially the databit, parity, or stopbits. Have you tried
doing a similar setup in HyperTerminal?

Do you have any code snippits that would suggest things to try? The
documentation has way too much information for me to comprehend. I'm using the
module in another application to drive a modem and it works fine with only two
lines of code. Is this more complicated?
Check your parity and bit length. There is a DIP switch that determines
whether it's 8-bit or 7, even parity or odd. Maybe you can post your
working code for the community to inspect.

I have never done this and just need help getting off the 'dime'. I have a monitor program that I tried to fork from TK - doesn't work... won't work. So, I thought, can I start a Tk window from the monitor and collect the input that way? Forget Tk for now. How do I fork a process and have that process return information? Shared memory? Pipes?

>> The regular expression in Perl works slower when the size of file is bigger and we want >>to find the multilple patterns. I disagree with your assessment. Testing this past weekend using 52 files 200MB to 1.9GB in size showed that FIND.EXE was substantially slower than Perl RegEx. My tests show that FIND loaded the entire file into memory. The program I used in the tests opened the file and processed one line of text at a time evaluating it using a regular expression.

Hi Everyone,
The regular _expression_ in Perl works slower when the
size of file is bigger and we want to find the multilple patterns.
So, what I found is using the find command in DOS we
can get the output faster $avl ="Available
Bytes"; $filename =
"WMTP_db_2006_2_28.txt"; @args = ("find",
$avl, $filename); system(@args);
But here does anyone knows how to give the output of
this system(@args) in a files.
Thanks, Seema

Re: List Installed Font Names?
I would start by looking in Scriptomatic for a WMI call into the fonts system. And then use that with the standard OLE perl thingy to get the information. Of course if u just listed the fonts directory u would have to decode the font files urself to get their presentation names. And even then, just because a font file exists doesn't mean it's usable or available in the system.
