I'm moving from Windows 2000 (IIS 5) to Windows Server 2003 (IIS6). I'm
unable to capture the output of a program using backticks in a CGI
script. I tried v5.6.1 build 631 and v5.8.8 build 819 with the same
results. Below is a trivial CGI script as an example.
use CGI ':standard';
print header();
print << "end_html";
<html>
<head><title>Test</title></head>
<body>
<pre>
end_html
print `ping localhost`;
print "<br>Error: $!<br>\n";
print << "end_html";
</pre>
</body>
</html>
end_html
;
Under IIS5 it displays the output of ping as expected and no error ($!).
Under IIS6 there is no output except for "Error: Bad file descriptor".
