Creating Excel File with Perl in IIS6.

[gb1z]

I copied an existing website that uses a Perl script from Windows Server 2000/IIS5.0 to Server 2003/IIS6.0. The script populates an excel file that is available to download via the client browser. After I moved the code, it now saves the excel file to the server and the client doesn't have access via the browser. Is this a permissions issue with IIS6.0 or a configuration setting I need to change? I have given 'everyone' full access to the directories that contain the website and Perl script, but that didn't help.

Thanks.
