Can't config using windows xp, apache and activeperl

I'm new at all of this and I am following the instructions on FoswikiOnWindowsApacheAndActivePerl to install FosWiki. First, I ran into an error when starting Apache that said "Invalid command 'RewriteEngine'..." I uncommented the line "LoadModule setenvif_module modules/mod_setenvif.so" in httpd.conf and now Apache seems to start.

Now, when I try to go to http://localhost/foswiki/bin/configure, I get the following in my browser:

Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.
Please contact the server administrator, xxxxxxx@gmail.com and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.<br />More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

I get the following in the apache error log:

[Thu Jul 02 18:24:09 2009] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] (OS 3)The system cannot find the path specified. : couldn't create child process: 720003: configure
[Thu Jul 02 18:24:09 2009] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] (OS 3)The system cannot find the path specified. : couldn't spawn child process: C:/www/foswiki/bin/configure

As I said, I'm new at this an I would appreciate any help. If you need any more information about my configuration, please let me know.

Thanks in advance.

Your shebang seems to be incorrect. All perl scripts ( foswiki\bin\) start with a shebang on the first line. This sets the interpreter for which the following code is meant for. Foswiki is shipped with a standard shebang for perl in the *nix-world: #!/usr/bin/perl. This path does not exist on a wind*ws machine. Please correct all shebangs to something like:

#!c:\perl\bin\perl.exe

I looked around for documentation about the shebang required for Windows XP. The ActivePerl site had an FAQ that showed the shebang for the Win XP environment as:
