Have you tried using perl.exe as the program and the script as an argument? I bet the script can't find the perl interpreter.
The fields would be as follows: Display Name: My Script Program File name : perl.exe Working path: c:\perl\bin\ Arguments: c:\whatsup\myperlscript.pl Is your 1st line #!perl or #!c:\perl\bin\perl.exe And last but not least, Is your perl path in your Path statement for your OS?

I have set the script up to run from the "Program" option in the "Notification Library" under the "Configuration" menu, but it fails. If I point to a batch file it seems to execute the .bat OK. I just doesn't like a Perl script for some reason. I can execute the perl script by simply double clicking it in Windows Explorer, so it is executable. Any ideas on how to WUG to execute something from Perl?
