I am trying to run a CGI web app on an IIS7.5 server. I have gone through the documentation and have followed it exactly (as far as I can tell). I have turned off the firewall, and have checked that my ActivePerl is the correct version (32 bit). I have tried with a number of different static ports and I have tried with auto port. Still, this is the error that I get back in my web browser, "Application launched, but unable to connect using port 8888". Any ideas why this would be? I notice that this is an error that comes up in the CGI script, but it's rather an ambiguous error so it's hard to know why it doesn't connect. If I run the exe from Command Prompt using "Start filepath port", the site runs fine and I can connect to it? Example would be Start C:/Inetpub/TestOEHome/TestOEHome.exe 8888 However, I don't really want to manually start the executable every time someone wants to connect to the site! I have managed to adjust the Perl Script to give me a Windows Error code # 5 "Access is denied". But I can't work out how the access is denied. The firewall is definitely off, and the permissions are very generous. Does anyone have any advice/suggestions? They would be gratefully received.
