I really like the idea of shttpd and would like to use it to help teach
people how easy it is to use the web.

However, I have not been able to get shttpd to run any CGI programs on
Windows, and it only gives a cryptic "Error: 500" with no other
feedback. So I thought I'd ask the experts for help.

I'm running shttpd with this command line:

shttpd -access_log access.log -error_log error.log -cfg_uri /cfg -ports
8080 -cgi_interp "C:\Program Files\Perl\bin\perl.exe" -root
"C:\Documents and Settings\noone\web" 

My perl test program is as follows:

#!/usr/bin/perl -w

print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";

print "test";

I'm running Windows XP with ActivePerl 5.8 installed. Where did I go
wrong?

Thank you for any help you can provide.
