I think will have been asked loads of times before but

How to i get pl scripts to run? I'm trying to run the test script printenv.pl when you install wamp found in the C:\wamp\Apache2\cgi-bin folder. In my browser i type [localhost] and i get an internal server error.

I've check the script is pointing to the correct location for perl but when checking the folder c:/wamp/Perl/bin/ is not there.

So how do i install perl as i can't find the add-on install file on wamp website.


Please help
I'm trying to get Dada Mail to work.

[localhost] but keep getting this:-

perl does work on windows. after you install the perl addon for wamp, you will need to setup apache yourself to get perl to work. also, you will have to change the location to perl in your scripts to the location of perl.exe.

search this forum for installing perl, and perl add-on
