%1 is not a valid Windows NT application.
I just installed links on my Nt Server today. Everythings has been uploaded ascii in the correct directories. I have edited the links.cfg file, But I keep getting that error no matter what cgi I run "%1 is not a valid Windows NT application".

Make sure that you have set the $db_iis variable to 1 in the links.cfg, like the following:

Code:
$db_iis = 1;

There was no $db_iis = ; to be found in the links.cfg I added it in but there was no change.

Thanx for the suggestion though.

Look for $db_iis = 0; in the links.cfg file...change the 0 to 1, like the following:

Code:
$db_iis = 1;

It ends up that .cgi was not pointed towards perl. so I renamed everything from .cgi to .pl, then went through everthing and adjusted the coding. It seems to be working now.
