Could this be the answer to some of the NT CGI
mail/file bugs? (only one prob, doesn't seem to work)
Unable to Use Standard Program I/O in PERL Script
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:
Microsoft Internet Information Server version 2.0
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYMPTOMS
You are unable to use standard programming I/O methods
to pass arguments and/or data to and from external
command or separate PERL Scripts that are spawned from
a parent script.
CAUSE
When you spawn a script or external command from a CGI
application, it is created in a separate process. By
default Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS)
2.0 does not create a console and does not support
standard I/O redirection between processes.
RESOLUTION
To resolve the problem, edit the registry as described
below.
WARNING: Using Registry Editor incorrectly can cause
serious, system-wide problems that may require you to
reinstall Windows NT to correct them. Microsoft cannot
guarantee that any problems resulting from the use of
Registry Editor can be solved. Use this tool at your
own risk.
Start Registry Editor (Regedt32.exe) and locate the
following registry subkey in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
subtree:
\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\W3SVC\Parameters
Click Add Value on the Edit menu.
Type the following:
Value Name: CreateProcessWithNewConsole
Data Type: REG_DWORD
DateValue = 1
NOTE: Creating a new console for each CGI script has
serious performance implications and should not be
done unless slower performance is acceptable.
MORE INFORMATION
For additional information about supported registry
parameters, please see the Online documentation for
IIS 2.0. Go to the product documentation link and
choose Chapter 10 from the contents page then Service
Specific Registry Entries with Common Names. Search on
CreateProcessWithNewConsole.
