Joe,
What extension are you using for script? If its .cgi I think you need to
associate .cgi with Perl.
Something like
assoc .cgi=Perl
from the command line should do it.

Hi,
This is my first time on the list. I have a couple of questions.
I need to get a perl editor for my pc, any recommendations.
I am on a NT workstation and need to be able to serve myself for testing.
I loaded Apache and had no problem with the install but need to test a
simple hello world script in the cgi-bin it set up. I know that when I
use the same script on a Unix box I need to have the first line show the
path to perl. I am having trouble with this working on the NT. I loaded
ActivePerl and I am not sure what to do. It put Perl in C:\Program
Scripts\Apache Group\Apache\bin\Perl.exe. I changed the http.cnf file in
Apache and it allows me to run the script, but all I get is the whole
thing printed, not the "Hello world" printed.
Does ActivePerl have a syntax checker built into it?
Any help will be much appreciated.
Joe Bifano
