Hi,

I saw the script being used on a UNIX server and really liked it. So I downloaded the zip-file and tried to install it on my W2K server. I also installed Active Perl 5.6 and had it make all the mappings etc. for IIS 5. But it won't run.
Now I hope this is something that makes the expert users say "thats a newbie-question" because that would mean its easy to fix:

When I call http://MyserverName/cgi-bin/mysqlman/mysql.cgi

it responses with:

'c:\inetpub\cgi-bin\mysqlman\mysql.cgi' script produced no output

Thanks for your help :)

You need to use:



in the mysql.cfg file in the following line of codes:



Change the bolded codes to the following:



NOTE: No Trailing Slash...also double check your IIS configurations to make sure that you have set files/directories to be case insensitive. The default setting is case sensitive...meaning that you would have to use the same case setting of your directories/files as the physical names.

Eliot -

thanks for you fast reply, but it didn't do it for me.

* first, I didn't get the thing you said about case sensitivity. I'm using Window 2000, and I never ever saw anything in Windows to enable or disable case sensitivity. Or am I really mistaken ?
BTW because the inetpub is Inetpub I even tried using that.
* Secondly, the syntax you use for c:/inetpub/cgi-bin/mysqlman I don't really get: shouldn't that be c:\inetpub\cgi-bin\mysqlman or just /cgi-bin/mysqlman ?
I tried both both neither did work.
I also tried setting the use lib to these combinations.

Appreciate your help so far, hope you can help me some more.

Absolute paths in Windows servers should be:



with forward slashes NOT back slashes

Ok,

Just wanted to report back a final time:
Seemed like there was something wrong with the installed PERL version, re-installing and downloading all the needed PPD files, and setting all the right path variables fixed it.

It is now working like a charm. GREAT SCRIPT !!
Thank you very much.
