Perl & Win XP

[hannamyluv]

I wrote a perl script to create the datafeeds we do. I currently have it on my computer (Win 2000) and it runs fine.

I want to run it on a computer with Win XP. I installed ActivePerl and it looks like it's in the right spot. But when I go to run the script, all it does is call up notepad with the script in it. What am I doing wrong?

TIA

Do you have a server installed?

Also If you are using apache I think you heed to specify in the config file where cgi's are allowed to be excecuted from. In apache the file you need to alter is httpd.conf

Perhaps someone lese will be able to offer advice if you are running IIS.

I got it. I installed something wrong. Just reinstalled it and it runs fine.

Thanks anyway!
