Active Perl upgrade problems

[Thomas C]

I upgraded my IIS web site on a 2K box from 5.6.0 to 5.6.1 and now
instead of the .pl scripts running they want to either open or save.
I even tried uninstalling the newer version and reinstalling the newer
version with no luck. I also insured the pl association was made in
IIS and that the perl\bin was in the path statement of the
environment. I am out of ideas! The whole company world wide uses
this site and it being down is causing lots of trouble.

That one it's hardly a Perl question and it's difficult to parse the
expressions used here.

I assume that some changes has been done in your win2K box (I know for
sure that IIS cannot fit in 2K).

This one has been a IIS or a Perl upgrade?
What changes had the upgrade done?.
Can the changes be undone?

He clearly said he upgraded Perl "5.6.0 to 5.6.1". Had you actually read the
post instead of smearing it apparently for using an MS product to run it,
you would of caught that.

Go to your control panel (Administive Tools) for IIS and make sure the
directory (/cgi-bin? or perhaps /scripts?) has execute access.
