I tried to replace my app with a perl test script and I get 500
internal server error when I try to access /test/ URL:

httpd.conf:

        ScriptAlias     /test/  "C:/Program Files/MyApp/bin/test.pl"

error.log:

[Tue Nov 18 21:53:15 2008] [error] [client ::1] (OS 3)The system
cannot find the path specified.  : couldn't create child process:
720003: test.pl
[Tue Nov 18 21:53:15 2008] [error] [client ::1] (OS 3)The system
cannot find the path specified.  : couldn't spawn child process:
C:/Program Files/MyApp/bin/test.pl

I have confirmed that C:/Program Files/MyApp/bin/test.pl file exists.

script.log does not have any logs about it.

In the same folder I have my foo.exe and that does not result in
similar logs, instead script.log has empty response from that. I'm
sure I'm missing something very trivial.

Thanks for suggestions/help,
Ravindra
