Hi, Does the script look ok to you? A couple of things I would change is to add `use CGI::Carp qw/fatalsToBrowser/;` and then remove the chdir and put in the path `$ENV{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/` into your `$a` and `$b` vars. I would also put the `$a` and `$b` between quotes. `#!/usr/bin/perl print "Content-type: text/html\n\n"; use CGI; $q = new CGI; $a = "$ENV{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/file1.htm"; $b = "$ENV{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/file2.htm"; rename("$a", "$b") \|\| die "Can't rename $!";` [download] ----- Of all the things I've lost in my life, its my mind I miss the most.

#!/usr/bin/perl

print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";

use CGI;
$q = new CGI;

$a = "$ENV{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/file1.htm";
$b = "$ENV{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/file2.htm";
        
rename("$a", "$b") || die "Can't rename $!";
