Trying to migrate a perl script from linux to windows (IIS), I need to execute a command line from within the perl script. This snippet worked fine in linux (provided the path is correct), but it didn't work in windows:
$sys="C:/antiword/antiword.exe -t -w 10000 document.doc > C:/Inetpub/wwwroot/somedir/document.txt"; system($sys); The snippet works fine if the script is run from the DOS window, or by double clicking, but is makes nothing when it is executed as a CGI. I've double checked that the destination folder has write permissions working fine. Is the "system(...);" sentence not appropriate under the windows envirnonment?
