The application that is called in reponse to a script is controlled by a list of associations configured in IIS. The method by which you manually make the association between any script and it's executable is described in the ActiveState documentation. Normally the association should have been configured if you selected the right install options.

But in brief - Try this:

  1. Locate your script directory (e.g. cgi-bin) in the IIS admin console
  2. View the properties | Virtual Directory Tab
  3. Press the Configuration button.
  4. Either locate or create the .pl entry
  5. Enter the details shown below then test your app
Executable = C:\Full\Path\perl.exe -T "%s" %s
Extension = .pl
Verbs - Limit to = GET, POST

The perl executable appears to run OK with the extra option but you might want to check that it is actually doing any work!
