When you paste a script like this please enclose it in the code brackets and check mark the Disable Smilies in this post box as you have included a smiley in the code.

Can you paste here your actual error messages please?

Look in .\xampp\apache\logs\error.log file for any clues and paste them here but only those errors about your cgi issues.

How are you running the cgi scripts - what URI do you use?

Where have you put the .cgi file?

When I run your script that I named here.cgi I get this initial error:
Code: Select all
[error] [client 127.0.0.1] Premature end of script headers: here.cgi
[error] [client 127.0.0.1] Can't locate CWT/MySQL.pm in @INC (@INC contains: C:/xampp/perl/site/lib C:/xampp/perl/lib .) at C:/xampp/cgi-bin/here.cgi line 6.\r
[error] [client 127.0.0.1] BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at C:/xampp/cgi-bin/here.cgi line 6.\r

Line 6 = use CWT::MySQL;
This Perl module CWT:MySQL is an error as this module does not exist anywhere on the Internet that I could find - it may be a proprietary module created by the script's author and would have to be installed to use the script.

This line 6 would have to be corrected for the script to proceed beyond this line.

Check with where you acquired the script and get confirmation of the contents of line 6 and the other lines that reference CWT.

After commenting out line 6 there where many more issues with this script including syntax errors and global symbol requires issues.

Too many errors for me to bother with so I suggest a visit to the script's author for some serious troubleshooting of this script.

FWIW - For a list of installed modules installed in the Perl instance within XAMPP go here (it may take a while to load the page) :
http://localhost/perl/perlinfo.pl

BTW did you install the XAMPP Perl Addon?
Not that installing the Addon would help to sort the many issues with this poor old cgi script.
