Hi there I have loaded perl 5.2 onto my IIS 3.0 server NT4 SP4 My perls scripts work fine but my CGIs dont work even tho the are in /scripts directory I have used regedit to HKLM/System/CCSet/...w3SVC/parameters/ and file map .cgi as a dword to point to c:\perl\lib\perl.exe %s %s I can execute a perl script by typing in Http://my ip addy/scripts/helloWorld.pl and it executes but when I type in Http://my ip addy/scripts/helloWorld.cgi i get this error message HTTP/1.0 403 Access Forbidden (Read Access Denied - This Virtual Directory does not allow objects to be read. My /scripts dir is set to (NTFS) Admin Full Control System Full Control I_usr Change in IIS server manager /Scripts is set to read and execute ( but i think it should just be execute; I have both options selected for trouble shooting reasons but any advice would be great) I have read I have to add print "HTTP/1.0 200 OK\n"; print "Content-type: text/html\n\n"; to the top of the *.cgi Its at the very top yes? Any suggestions? PS there is not much RAM left
