perl script is not running under iis 4.0

[charlatan]

After upgrading from iis3.0 to 4.0 i've got the following message, while executing ANY perl script:

CGI Error
The specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete set of HTTP headers. The headers it did return are:
Can't open perl script "????????????????????????i????gf?g": Invalid argument

What could occure the problem?
Please help.

check your mappings under he scripts virtual directory.

Open Internet Inf Svr manager, right click scripts, properties, virtual directory, configuration.

Make sure .pl is mapped to <perlpath>perlis.dll

Go to the registry and rename your 'scriptmaps' folder so IIS doesn't get confuse. Often it tries to import things more than once. IIS 4.0 doesn't need the scriptmaps from the registry.
