I think you should start by installing curl or wget, blagg needs these to get its feeds (IIRC). Heh, many problems.

I was hoping you could help as I know it has to be something simple. I copied mt.pl to my MovableType plugins directory, i.e. c:\Inetpub\tmcnet\cgi-bin\plugins directory (Note: most people create a folder mt under cgi-bin, i.e. \mt\cgi-bin\, but I installed MT to cgi-bin) I made the 1 change in this mt.pl file: $MT_DIR = '/inetpub/tmcnet/cgi-bin/'; Next I copied blagg.cgi to c:\inetpub\tmcnet\cgi-bin\ and renamed it to blagg.pl (.pl extension executes in CMD shell without prefacing with Perl.exe) Then I created created an rss.dat file located in c:\inetpub\tmcnet\cgi-bin\bloxsom\rss.dat I added one entry to rss.dat – "voipblog <a href="http://blog.tmcnet.com/blog/tom-keating/index.xml" rel="nofollow">http://blog.tmcnet.com/blog/tom-keating/index.xml</a> interactively" (no quotes) Finally, I tried running blagg. Heres what I get: C:\Inetpub\tmcnet\cgi-bin>blagg.pl -mode=interactive -plugin=mt -author=tkeating -blogname="VOIP BLOG - VOIP NEWS, GADGETS" Subroutine init redefined at \inetpub\tmcnet\cgi-bin\plugins\mt.pl line 38. Subroutine post redefined at \inetpub\tmcnet\cgi-bin\plugins\mt.pl line 46. Subroutine destroy redefined at \inetpub\tmcnet\cgi-bin\plugins\mt.pl line 63. Couldn't load 'VOIP BLOG - VOIP NEWS, GADGETS' blog Any suggestions? Is it possible it’s a security issue. I noticed this executes without my MT password passed as a parameter. How does it access the MT database without a username/password? Also, do I need to install Curl? I'm using MT 2.661 installed on Windows IIS running ActivePerl. I don't think Curl is installed as a default Perl module with ActivePerl. Any help greatly appreciated!
