Title: More PWS Questions and Issue

>> I followed the instructions at  http://www.rebol.org/userlist/archive/38/514.html , and that was an adventure in itself.  Any windows wizards out there willing to write a script or .bat file to make these registry settings easier and less scary for we mortals?? It's nothing you can do from a batch file or script, and, you're right, the Registry is just not meant for mere mortals. Installing perl's the same way. Someone tried to do a setup executable for perl to do the registry updates, but it still doesn't work half the time, and you're back to doing it by hand anyway. It's not uncommon to have to make fixes to registry when using Web services and CGIs on Win32, at least as soon as you step away from "platform neutral" Microsoft products.

Anyway, after I made the changes, I tried to run a simple form with the cgi-get and cgi-post code from the howto.html...and got the following symptoms: 1) An instance of rebol opened up on my machine?? 2) The CGI script misbehaved and returned incomplete headers.  The headers it did return were:  and the rest of the screen was blank. I created a virtual directory named Rebol, and gave it execute priviledges, and my url for the form was http://localhost/rebol/cgi-get.r . Hope that someone can help me get this thing going...One writer suggest I run an different (Omni) web server...now this could be an interim option if I could run it on 8080 or something, but I need to continue to run PWS on 80....HEEEEEEElp, Mark Woodward
