Sounds like a file permissions problem. IIS isn't running as you, so it may not have execute priviledges on the files.

    Thanks - but I already thought of that so I have checked and changed the security properties in d:\perl - and all subfolders - and have set 'full access' to all of the users listed - including everyone and - because this is only a test server - I have also done the same on d:\wwwroot and all subfolders. I have used IIS manager to set Script Source Access, Read and Write permissions on all web sites Execute permissions are set to 'Scripts and Executables' on all web sites It still fails!!!!
      tsrplatelayer:

      How about the environment variables the IIS user is running under? Specifically any settings that would affect how perl looks for modules & executables.

        If you could be a little more specific I will check the settings. I do not know where Perl or any of the modules open temporary working files, so it could be a permissions issue on those folders also.
