in reply to Setting up Perl/CGI with Windows

Good tutorial, Ovid!

I'd just like to point you to http://www.apachefriends.org/index-en.html where you can download WAMPP, a package of Apache, MySql, Perl and PHP and sometimes PhpMyAdmin, OpenSSL, mod_perl and much more for Win32. The installation process is well documented, and both in english or german. There also exists LAMPP, about the same for Linux. But I haven't yet tried it.

Best regards,
perl -e "s>>*F>e=>y)\*martinF)stronat)=>print,print v8.8.8.32.11.32"

    Hello I have installed activeperl on windows 2003 with IIS6. when i try to run a cgi file, i get the error CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete set of HTTP headers Anyone has an idea?

      Either you don't send a content-type, or you don't send it as the first output. Does the following code work? 
      #! /usr/bin/perl
use warnings;
use strict;
use CGI;
use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser warningsToBrowser);

my $cgi = CGI->new();
print $cgi->header(), $cgi->start_html('Testpage');
print $cgi->h1('Testpage');
print $cgi->end_html();
