I installed and set permissions to the links file and it seems to work find when I view the admin.cgi

However, when I add an .htaccess file to the admin directory, I can no longer view the admin.cgi file in the browser. Is there a permissions I have to set for it? I created the .htpasswd using telnet.

This is my .htaccess file:

AuthUserFile /home/envisage/www/cgi-bin/links/admin/.htpasswd
AuthGroupFile /dev/null
AuthName You need a user name and password to access this area
AuthType Basic

<Limit GET POST>
require valid-user
</Limit>

Also, when I create categories, I do not get any errors but where is it created? Did I have to create an index.html file in the pages directory? I did this and still don't see anything. Help. I have basic understanding of Perl but I have installed other perl scripts before on this server with very little problems.

Thanks in advance :-)

1) Try deleting the .htpasswd file and then re-create it.

2) You need to read the README file or browse the Thread in this forum (that is linked in the FAQ section in the Resource Center) about directory/file permissions.
