              Is it in your cgi-bin directory or elsewhere? Sounds like you need to set it as executable. Make sure you uploaded it in ASCII format also.

                  paths to perl correct?

                  Cgi-bin enabled?

                          yep, its working now, thanks


                          had to re-upload it to the cgi bin, and then had to re-upload it again in ASCII instead of Binary

                          but it works, thanks

                              Upload in ascii and make sure permissions are set to 755.
