Alyssa,

	The default for log files is in the C:\WINNT\System32\Logfiles if
Windows NT is installed according to defaults and the defaults have not been
changed on the web server.  You might be interested in the article at
http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/server/migrlab/howto.asp, which gives a
fairly comprehensive overview of how to migrate an entire web server to NT.
(You may have to register with Microsoft to use the site, but I believe it is
free otherwise.)

	Hope this helps,

	--Mark

	Hey everyone -

	I need some help -  I'm trying to port some Perl scripts (simple CGI
	apps) to Windows 2000 server (using the Actiand have gotten to the
	point with IIS where the scripts execute but I get a 500 server error. 

	I should say that I am a Perl developer FOR UNIX! I have never (up
	'till this morning) had to deal with Microsoft servers at all. 

	I can't find any useful IIS logs that tell me what headers were
	returned by the script - anyone know if that gets logged? (and where?)

	The scripts all compile (I checked from the Command Prompt) but still
	return the 500 error when run from the browser.

	My base question is this: How can I find out why these scripts aren't
	working so I can fix them?

	Any help you can provide would be wonderful.

	Thanks :)

	A.
