    Perl and PWS

    How do you install Perl so it can be used with PWS? I'm using active perl from activestate.com.

    The version they have for download should install it automatically. You may have to allow 'Execute" on a folder to get the scripts to work.

    Get these: Mozilla Opera OpenBSD
    I have books for sale: "MCSD in a Nutshell" and "VB Distributed Exam Cram" - PM me for details. Will also trade for a decent ATX Pentium 2 MB/CPU/RAM combo.

    Problem...

    How can I get it to actually execute the scripts? Right now all it is doing is showing the actual script code. I set the folder to Execute, but I think I have to set something else to point to the Perl interpreter. Anyone have an idea?

    make sure you have activeperl installed and make this registry edit

    in regedit go to:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\W3SVC\Parameters\Script Map

    then make a new string value and call it ".pl" or ".cgi" or make two of them that contain the following values.
    Make the value data to read "C:\Perl\bin\perl.exe %s %s"
    Of course, if perl is in a different spot then change it.
