Apache Friends Support Forum

Hie,
Thank for XAMPP it is very nice.
Today I was installing MovableType 3.15 on my localhost and did not succeed, but before that I managed to install this cms on my in my webspace. Well, basically I folllowed http://www.sherylcanter.com/movabletype ... 00003.html this instrcutions, since the original MovableType documentation is not very friendly.
After installing XAMPP I tested everything and everything is working I guess.
But when I pointed for MovableType it gave me the following:
Server error!

The server encountered an internal error and was unable to complete your request.

Error message:
couldn't create child process: 720003: mt-check.cgi

If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster.
Error 500

Apache/2.2.0 (Win32) DAV/2 mod_ssl/2.2.0 OpenSSL/0.9.8a mod_autoindex_color PHP/5.1.1 mod_perl/2.0.2 Perl/v5.8.7

Is anyone aware what to do?????
I placed cgi scripts to cgi-bin and static files like images to mt-static created outside cgi-bin, is this positioning of files is wrong??????
Thanks very much

"error.log"?

This is error log.
The file is 100% there, nd all the paths I correctly written, I am not doing it for the first time.

[Thu Feb 16 20:37:07 2006] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] (OS 3)The system cannot find the path specified. : couldn't create child process: 720003: mt-check.cgi

What is the first line of the file "mt-check.cgi"?

#!/usr/bin/perl -w - to my mind this must be causing problems,
but to what should I change it???
thanks very much once again

#!/usr/bin/perl -w - to my mind this must be causing problems,

Right, that's the problem.

but to what should I change it???

Simply the path to your Perl installation. eg. if you have installed the XAMPP Perl add-on it is:
#!/xampp/perl/bin/perl -w

thanks very much.
I like XAMPP very much, I was using wamp before, but since XAMPP allows to download itself in zip and just unpack it - its great.
