I just set up IIS 5.1 on XP PRO to handle PHP and CGI (perl) scripts. both
of them seem to be working fine but I have a problem defining the file path
when using cgi scripts. I have no problem finding perl at all. problem is
that most cgi scripts are set up for unix with the file path having all
forward slashes and usually start with: /user/cgi-bin/myscript/myscript.cgi.
What would be the path in terms IIS and Perl can understand? Let's assume I
set up a useraccount named pete, set up a folder on C:\ pete which is his
home directory. Pete's site can be found at: http://somesite/pete and his
cgi-bin is located in the pete folder which via web would look like this:
http://somesite/pete/cgi-bin . I can find .htm and other files there but
have problems defining the path so perl will know where the cgi files are.
Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks
