Hi,

Strange problem here:

Without changing my configuration (WinXP, Apache, Perl) I'm getting
the following error on all my cgi scripts:

[Thu Sep 23 18:30:54 2004] [error] [client 10.0.0.150] (OS 5)Access is
denied.  : couldn't create child process: 720005: test.cgi
[Thu Sep 23 18:30:54 2004] [error] [client 10.0.0.150] (OS 5)Access is
denied.  : couldn't spawn child process:
C:/usr/www/website/test/cgi-bin/test.cgi

System worked fine for a year!

Not sure what caused it I uninstalled and installed Apache (2.0.51)
and Perl (5.8.4 810): same error. Changed shebang line from
usr/bin/perl into usr/bin/perl5.8.4.exe: everything works fine!

Deleted perl.exe en copied perl5.8.4.exe to perl.exe: no help at all.

Any ideas?

Regards,

Patrick
