I am getting an error one of my scripts and it is the following :

couldn't spawn child process: c:/apache/htdocs/trt/members/login.cgi

What does this mean? I have never encountered it before. - Ben Russell

I guess it means it cannot execute login.cgi, either because the permissions are wrong, the path is incorrect, the filename is incorrect or there is something wrong in the login.cgi code (check with perl -c login.cgi).

More than likely a PATH problem. How and where are you calling it?
