Hello everyone!

I have written a program that takes argument from html-formula and read and
write it to a textfile.

When I tried it with perl mod 2, under windows with
apache it doesnt work anymore.
No new entries are written to the log-file.txt
Ive tried chmod, especially r/w accesses
but that doesnt seem to help.

also, .cgi files is renamed as .pl and the first line #!/usr/bin/perl -w
is deleted.

Maybe some configurations are wrong?
More comments are followed in the code below.
Under Linux, Apache this program works

Greatful for helps
Erik
