[Savant-cgi-help] mapping perl to server in Windows ME

[MARILYN L M. <m_a...@pr...>]

On Windows 98 I used the following to setup .pl and .cgi  in the Windows =
Registry but on Windows ME there is no Script Map.  How do I do this =
procedure in Windows ME.  Right now all I get is a blank DOS box instead =
of actually running perl program.


HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
     System
          CurrentControlSet
               Services
                   W3SVC
                       Parameters
                            Script Map

  1.. Select the key "Script Map". From the edit menu choose "New" then =
"String Value".=20
  2.. Name the new value ".pl" (no quotes) and click okay.=20
  3.. Double-click on the ".pl" you just created and enter=20
  "C:\Perl\bin\perl.exe %s %s" for its value (without the quotes), =
making sure the s's are lower case. If your path to the perl interpreter =
is not the same as the default above, adjust it accordingly.=20
  4.. Close the registry and restart your computer. Restart the web =
server if it doesn't start automatically.=20
