That didn't answer any of my questions. I don't care what you had working on another server.

Paths change between servers. Have you made sure that the script is properly configured for use on your current server?

Have you tested this perl script from a terminal on your current server? Did it work?

Have you tested any other perl scripts on your current server? Have any of those worked?

I had it work befor on a free netfirms server using SSI, but i cant get it to work here using SSI or php

SSI has nothing to do with PHP or the functionality of the Perl script.

We keep questioning you as to the functionality of the Perl script...
Have you tested it in a terminal? Does it work?
Have you tried to run other Perl scripts? Have any of those been successful?

I got ssi enabled buy i cant execute stuff

Are you sure you have the script configured properly?

is SSI enabled on your server?

is the perl script reasonable to rewrite in php?

Still dosent work.. remember i told you previously tha ti had a problem with SSI includes executing perl/php scripts

So i used php and php includes can exec php scripts but not perl

You need the full system path to the file.

passthru('/usr/bin/perl '.$DOCUMENT_ROOT.'/public_html/cgi-bin/script.pl');

well i'd guess this script doesnt work. does it work from a shell?

or you can try:

<?php
echo `/usr/bin/perl /public_html/cgi-bin/script.pl`;
?>

and see if it's spitting out any errors.
