ipl file returns error

Hi,
I have a test ipl and put it in /httpd/iw-bin.test.ipl and i call this file using a cgi callout. However, the server returns an internal server error. Any ideas where and how i can make this work?

Below is the code of the ipl
[html]
#!D:\Interwoven\TeamSite/iw-perl/bin/iwperl
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

use TeamSite: Smiley Very Happy

CRNode;
use TeamSite::CGI_lite;
use TeamSite::Config;
use Log::Log4perl qw(:easy);
use IO::File;
use Custom::CMSConfig::ConfigRead;
use CGI;

print "this is a test ipl... for testing only...";

[/html]
When i click the callout from dct, a new window pops up saying "internal server error"
Thanks,
A

what do you mean by "D:\Interwoven\TeamSite/iw-perl/bin/iwperl" ?

First of all compile n execute it error free and then call it from callout

CGI is a protocol. You have to follow CGI specs, simply printing arbitrary string into STDOUT will not work.

Take a look for example at /iwhome/httpd/iw-bin/show_env.ipl module and see what people who know this stuff are doing.
There are tons of books and sites on the topic as well

Bo's reply is most likely the answer, however you would also get that error from a syntax error in your perl. There are no obvious ones, but you have a custom pm so if that is not found, you will get the same error.

Just to be certain run:

\Interwoven\TeamSite/iw-perl/bin/iwperl -c

/Interwoven/TeamSite/httpd/iw-bin/test.ipl

and it is iw-bin/test.ipl not iw-bin.test.ipl

Bo's answer is correct - you cannot send output to STDOUT before initializing the browser window correctly to accept that output

Yes, Bo's answer was certain an issue. My point was there *may* have been another syntax error that no one saw in the code that was posted, this it is always a good idea to verify the Perl syntax of the CGI as well.
