Hi, i have encounter that problem before..
what i did is i recode it again but in my UNIX machine..
when, i transfer my file win to unix / when i run it, the apache error logs
says, not/found.
so what i did is i run it on the console
./myperl
not/found again..
so i ask on irc, and they told me to copy n paste it to win to unix, not in
ftp binary/ascii
and then i did run it again
and it work..
hope this help..
