Good point. I typically do provide more error output but for this post decided to be brief.

My problem is...the script isn't dying. The script runs just fine. The only problem is when I try to qx() and pass off the java registration commands to Dos. When I run the full script from a command-line, it works just fine. But when I run it from CGI, I get errors returned from the Java registration command.

That leaves me to believe that it's something to do with the environment the script is running in from the web server (in this case M$ PWS).

thanks!
