in reply to Unable to run batch file in CGI Script

Hi, i finally made the CGI script to open the batch file using
system('C:\\Server\\Apache\\cgi-bin\\test.bat');
The problem now is its printing whatever is written in the batch file but not executing it.

The error log says "Not enough storage is available to process this command.\r "
What does this error mean?

    Maybe you can't start a batch file directly, maybe you have to say system('cmd.exe _path_to_batch_file');
      I tried by placing the test.bat file in the C:\Windows\system32 folder and changing thesystem command to "system('cmd.exe test.bat'); but i am getting "Premature ending of headers" error. But the same program is working when executed through command prompt.
