CustomLogs piping does not work

           Summary: CustomLogs piping does not work
           Product: Apache httpd-2.0
           Version: 2.0.39
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: mod_log_config
        AssignedTo: bugs@httpd.apache.org
        ReportedBy: bpettit@yahoo.com

It seems that using the pipe in the customlogs is not working. I've tried the rotatelogs and it doesn nothing. I also created my own perl script to test this.

Here is what is in my httpd.conf

CustomLog "|bin/logs.pl logs/access.log" combined

And my perl script:

#!d:/Perl/bin/Perl.exe

#$x = <>;
#open OUT, ">> $ARGV[0]";
#print OUT $x;
#close OUT;

Do you need help?

open OUT, "> d:/a";
print OUT "a";
close OUT;

All this should do since I'm just trying to get this to work is create a file called d:\a with the letter a in it. This works fine from the command line. When I run apache, nothing happens.
