Build Problem
My hosting company decided to change web server without informing me. They copied my cgi-bin across to the new location - and I'm now getting a problem when I build - all variations. I get the message:

"The Document Contains No Data"

I suspect this is either a permissions or paths problem as they managed to screw up the first and change the second when they upgraded. I've checked all the permissions and changed the paths (I think).

Any ideas - everything else appears to work

Thanks

When you they copied to a new location, do you mean just a different (hopefullly better) server, or a new location? Ask them to verify what the PATH should be, if it has changed, then make sure that you have it set right in links.cfg.

Sounds like maybe Links can't find the /data directory, or is finding it empty. Look at /admin/data/links.db and be sure there your info is still there. If not, you can replace it with a backup copy. Let us know how it goes...

They moved everything to a new server box, changed the path, changed the perl location, copied all the files across setting permissions wrongly - finally sorted the last problem today (I hope)

Thanks
