in thread Problems with qx

It is in the PATH

It'll run properly from the command line. Plus it works in ISS and on a Boa server. It just doesn't seem to work in Apache. I am quite perplexed.

    It must be in the PATH environment var of your webserver. And your webserver user must have permission to execute the file. Try to type the full path before the command.

      I've tried using the full path, it still won't execute. I guess it must be a windows permission setting.
        ask perl, why it can not execoue the file:
        system("your prog") == 0 or die "system failed: $?";
        then look into your error log, what error you get. Fix it and replace the system call with qx again.
