Hello! I have finally finished the first version of my CGI script, and when I run it in the browser, it tells gives me a 500 error. Here is a snippet from my error log:

Code:
[Wed Oct 25 15:27:32 2006] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] (OS 3)The system cannot find the path specified.  : couldn't create child process: 720003: join.cgi
[Wed Oct 25 15:27:32 2006] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] (OS 3)The system cannot find the path specified.  : couldn't spawn child process: C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/cgi-bin/join.cgi

The syntax of my scripts is 100% correct, and when ran on the command line works fine. Any ideas?

Apache version:

Apache 2.2
 
You have spaces in your url. You need to put those in quotes.
 
So you mean that in my HTML form, I have to send the information to C:/'Program Files'/'Apache Software Foundation'/'Apache2.2'/cgi-bin/join.cgi?
