Chip,
I have given the excute permission to the folder cgi-bin in IIS and I have
given the execute read an visualization permissions to the accoun internet
guest. I have also eextracted the necessary dlls to the c:\windows\system32
folder.
I'm not able to make run properly this fantastic tool. Do you have some
other idea?


Thank you,

Andrea

This is a sort of "catch all" error issued by IIS when the CGI app you are
trying to run doesn't work for some reason. Usually you've forgotten some
minor detail in the setup. Check the following:

- Did you tell IIS to give execute permisions on the CGI-BIN (or SCRIPTS)
directory?
- Likewise, if you made a CGI-BIN directory, does the default user under
IIS have access to it? (EVERYONE-FULL CONTROL doesn't work... I think you
have to SPECIFICALLY designate the IIS user as having access)?
- There are some dll's that need to be installed either in the SCRIPTS
directory, or, preferably, in WINNT/System32. These should have come with
the distribution... if not they are available on the site.

Also, search the archives on the error... this issue comes up a lot... and
should probably be in the WIKI - I'll try to put something in there.
