If nothing has changed in the script or the Perl version on the server - could it realistically be the code or the Spreadsheet::WriteExcel module?

I've converted websites from IIS5 (Win2k) to IIS6 (Win2k3) and magically my scripts (.BAT, .PL, etc...) stop working. It had to do with permissions on the directories the scripts were in, the fact that the .BAT scripts specifically execute via CMD.EXE (which lives in %systemroot%\system32 - a NO-NO for IIS6) and the permissions for the user account running the IIS WWWW service.

Once I straightened out M$ security issues, my scripts ran fine again
