My apologies. I should have included the entire thread in my last post.
--------
I've tried uninstalling Perl build 638/reboot/reinstall/reboot and
re-registering perlse.dll with no luck. This is a production box and I'm told
NO to reinstalling IIS. It doesn't appear that any patches have been installed
prior to this problem. I did turn off the friendly HTTP error option and I'm
getting this error:
PerlScript Error error '80004005'
(in cleanup) Can't call method "Item" on an undefined value
The line of code it fails on is:
$testvar = $Request->QueryString('test')->Item();
Doing several searches on this error only points me to re-install or upgrade
MDAC which I've already tried. This is a nightmare! I guess I'm forced to
accept converting this to CGI. Or maybe the smart bet is to re-write this in
JavaScript. Thank you all very much for the help!

I'd look at the c:\perl\bin\perlse.dll and make sure it's version
information says something similar to 5.6.x.638
Then...
C:\perl\bin>regsvr32 perlse.dll
If there's anything wrong with the PerlScript, that should help clear it
up.
However, if that doesn't work, you might try uninstalling perl, deleting
the entire directory (C:\Perl) -- backing up any important scripts or
modules first, then rebooting, and finally reinstalling perl from
scratch followed by a reboot.
Make sure that the checkbox for PerlScript and IIS script mappings are
on (I think they are by default).
Beyond that, I may be of little or no use. Sorry. 638 has always
worked in the past.
