Mike, In external actions, I just invoke the Perl interpreter also, something like:
c:\perl\bin\perl.exe c:\myscrip.pl Jon -----Original Message----- From: mike bravu [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 30 July 2002 3:10 To: Multiple recipients of list witango-talk Subject: Witango-Talk: External Action Using Perl Files Hello all, Does anybody know how to invoke external action when the executable is a Perl file and/or has such an example or documentation? All I get is this Tango Server error: Unable to execute command line external action: D:\_KA\admin\myFile.pl %1 is not a valid Win32 application. - I use Windows 2000, Tango 2000, ActiveState Perl latest version; - Extension .pl is associate with perl.exe and the perl executable works fine from the command line. The command is: "D:\apps\myFile.pl"' - Using a .bat file works OK; also executing a perl file from within a .bat file works. Many thanks, Mike Bravu. _________________________________________________________________ Send and receive Hotmail on your mobile device: http://mobile.msn.com ________________________________________________________________________ TO UNSUBSCRIBE: send a plain text/US ASCII email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe witango-talk in the message body ________________________________________________________________________ TO UNSUBSCRIBE: send a plain text/US ASCII email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe witango-talk in the message body
