    I have an IDL 7.0.6 running on my Vista laptop. I need to run in batch mode in a web application, i.e. the Apache server needs to run idlde -batch . The batch commands generated by my script work fine from an administrator terminal window. However, when I run it through Apache, IDL starts up but then hangs. I'm guessing it has something to do with access rights to the .idl directory, which probably Apache isn't able to create. Running IDL this way worked fine with older versions, since the introduction of the .idl directory, I've had problems with it.

    This has to do with how Vista and Apache control what is accessible via web servers.  Try creating a preference file located somewhere where Apache can access it. Then reference it when launching idlde using the -pref flag.  Bill
