[users@httpd] Question on accessing directories

["Thomas M. Else" <to...@weatherworksinc.com>]

Dear users,

    I installed Apache web server 2.2.4 on my Windows XP Platform along with Active State Perl 5.8.  I'm trying to run a cgi script using Apache Web Server.  When the script tries to access a local drive on my computer (C:/test), the script gets hung up and sits there without doing anything.  If I run the perl script using Active State Perl and predefine the values for the form fields, the program works fine.  How do I allow the program to access the C:/Test directory and open / amend files in it?

Thanks,

Tommy
