Lyle,
I havent played too much with perl6 or IIS7, but I would hazard a guess that
the open on err.txt is failing. Have you tried a bare bones version without
opening any files? i.e. just printing out the Content-Type and hello with
say without any filehandles prepended.
Xiao,
Awful in this context means that there was a lot of work done. Lyle is
actually complementing Jan on his hard work believe it or not!
Just in
