Form-mail CGI Scripts 1

[Tefal]

I have a CGI script that will send form contents to an e-mail address, but can't get it to run under IIS 5

The directory is set-up correctly, but returns an error saying '%1 is not a valid Win32 application'

Please help!!

did you install cgi extentions on you IIS server ??
If not you have to becouse they are not istalled as default on IIS.
I hope that this helps.

I don't get the option to install it.

Am using IIS 5 and have looked everywhere to install but cannot find it.

What kind of CGI is it? PHP, Perl, C++ ? What ending does the file have?

 

[Tefal]

It's a CGI script written in Perl with a .CGI extension

If you have formmail.cgi or something like that, the mail script is calling up sendmail which is for unix/linux. Use something like CDO for NTS and make sure you have SMTP server installed in your IIS properties.

Here's the code

&quot;<% @language=&quot;VBSCRIPT&quot; %>

<%
Set objMail = Server.CreateObject(&quot;CDONTS.Newmail&quot
objMail.To = request.form (&quot;recipient&quot
objMail.Subject = request.form (&quot;name&quot
objMail.From = request.form (&quot;email&quot
objMail.Body = request.form (&quot;message&quot
objMail.Send
Set objMail = Nothing


Response.Redirect &quot;

http://www.yourdomain.com/redirected.html&quot;

%>&quot;

This would be the processor that your form sends to. It's ASP of course, but just make this a file called process.asp and put it in the same dir as the form you want to use. For the mailer form use code that looks like this

&quot;<form action=&quot;processmail.asp&quot; method=&quot;POST&quot;>
<input type=&quot;hidden&quot; name=&quot;recipient&quot; size=&quot;25&quot; value=&quot;youremail@yourdomain.com&quot;>
<tr>
<th width=&quot;588&quot; height=&quot;453&quot;>
</center>
<p align=&quot;center&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 50; margin-right: 50; margin-top: 5&quot;> 
<p align=&quot;center&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 50; margin-right: 50; margin-top: 5&quot;>Send

</table>
<input type=&quot;submit&quot; value=&quot;Submit&quot;> <input type=&quot;reset&quot; value=&quot;Reset&quot;>
</form>&quot;

drop that &quot;<form>&quot; into your page and it will enter the form contents into your process.asp and then mail it out with your default smtp server that comes with IIS.

Hope this helps, it works great for me and my clients.
