Non-OS users cannot use the Perl PT compiler

Hi,

I migrated the content - dcr,tpl,js, templating.cfg from TS 6.5 to TS 7.2.1 and after migration I tested preview functionality.

It works fine when I logged in with an OS user but when I tried to preview the same DCR using non-OS users credentials, I am being returned the following error ......

"No presentation template is available for one of these reasons: 1) None exist for this data type: bjs_us/global_elements. 2) Non-OS users cannot use the Perl PT compiler. 3) On Unix, the Perl PT compiler does not work if utild runs as non-root."

TS 6.5 : Windows NT.
TS 7.2.1 : Window 2008.

I am added to TeamSite as an LDAP user.

Yes you are correct. This is basic functionality lost when going to non OS users.

You either make them OS users or rewrite in XSL

This is from the form publisher developer guide(7.2.1):

Compatibility and Limitations
Perl presentation templates do not support non-OS users.
Perl presentation templates do not support the utility daemon running as a non-root user.
In either or these scenarios, you must use XSLT presentation templates.

Yes there is an limitation to use Perl PT Compiler for Non OS users but
you can override generate and preview functionality to work with non user os.

How can generate/preview be overwritten? Could you please elaborate?
