in reply to 500 Internal Server Error - Using ActiveState perl

If you are trying to run your scripts using IIS rather than Apache then make sure you read the section 'How do I configure Microsoft IIS 4.0/IIS 5.0 to support ActivePerl?' in the Activeperl FAQ.

Under IIS the shebang doesn't matter quite as much as making sure the the file extensions are mapped correctly.

And use Apache instead of IIS if you can. ;)

    Hey-

    Thanks for all the help

    I tried even using a simple print "HEllo" script to test if it works. No luck and still gives me 500 error. I tested the print hello script on the command line and works fine.

    I think reading that FAQ may just do, so going to get going on that, because right now I'm pretty sure this is a configuration problem.
