Re: Problem with window

Nothing to do with Perl, and everything to do with the DOS shell.

Put quotes around the name you'r passing:perl foobar.pl "C:/Documents and Settings/Random User/My Documents/zap.txt"

I think the perl script that run on dos could not find my cgi-bin file. As this is a perl web server, and the cgi-script is display on a browser. This is what the server said on dos prompt;- `/cgi-bin/myp2p.cgi dispatched to cgi_bin as cgi_bin ServerState=HASH( +0x1b39dc4) at PSP/Httpd.pm line 20, <STDIN> line 179. 'C:\Documents' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

You didn't mention anything about CGI or a web server in your original question. As a matter of fact, you said very little, so I put forward my best guess. At this point, it's still not clear to me what you're doing. I'm not familiar with any Perl web servers, so there's little I can do to help you there. But I would suggest that you take a look at some of the Tutorials here, in particular, Before You Post ..., How (Not) To Ask A Question, and dominus's excellent writeup Why questions go unanswered. Good luck, and sorry I couldn't help more.	[reply]
