Sue has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Although I can run my PerlScript .asp files with FrontPage, when I try to access them with the browser, I get
The page cannot be displayed ... with the following:
Error Type:
Active Server Pages, ASP 0129 (0x80004005)
The scripting language 'PerlScript' is not found on the server.
/Perl/eg/aspsamples/ado1.asp, line 1
Perl.exe is in c:\perl\bin, which is in my path.
PerlScript is in my windows registry
I tried various things in IIE but nothing has worked.
Do I need some environmental variables set?
- or what?

    Have a look at this link. It will tell you a lot of how to install PerlScript.

    Perl.exe is Perl itself. For PerlScript you must have checked the option to install it when installing ActiveState Perl.

    I know this is probably a silly question but have you tried stopping and restarting the IIS since you installed Perl?
