send-cgi reports: could not send new process

[DKL01]

Hello All -

I'm getting below mentioned error while running a perl script.

-------------------------------------------------------
ERROR:
trying to GET /shell-cgi/jscompiler.pl, send-cgi reports: could not send new process (File not found)
cgi_send:cgi_start_exec d:\programs\shell-cgi\jscompiler.pl failed
--------------------------------------------------------

Here is how I'm calling it. Basically I would like to see the output of the perl script in the HTML

<FRAMESET COLS="55%,45%">
<FRAME SRC="

http://1test.dca.com/shell-cgi/jscompiler.pl"

NAME="compile">
<FRAME SRC="index.html" NAME="appstatus">
</FRAMESET>

I have installed ActivePerl on that PC and .pl is associated with PERL.

The HTML is running on Sun One web server. Not sure what's the problem. Really appreciate any suggestions.

Thanks

Well I'm just guessing here, but I believe the problem arises from this message: (File not found)

It appears to be looking for your script at "d:\programs\shell-cgi\jscompiler.pl". Is that where it actually is?

the URL appears to be good:

http://1test.dca.com/shell-cgi/jscompiler.pl

don't know why you're getting that error message.

Actually that's just a default page whenever something isn't found. You can try this link as well:

Yea, I noticed that after I posted. Still don't know what the error is about though.
