in reply to activestate opens files from commandline but not when executed as a cgi

Are you using relative paths to read the file?

IIS doesn't like relative paths... try absolute ones.
For example, try: 
($relative_path=$ENV{SCRIPT_NAME}) =~ s|[^/]+$||;
$absolute_path=$ENV{PATH_TRANSLATED}.$relative_path;

$filename=$absolute_path.'file.txt';
