Link.db and linksid.txt problem
Hi, I'm having this error when trying to add/delete/anything in the admin.cgi. It's says that he couldn't find the link.db/linksid.txt and the directory where it is. Well, it is there, the permissions and paths are correct. I tried everything but I still get this error! I'm sorry if this is the wrong forum or if it's a common question, but I already done a search here and it didn't find anything.

Here is a copy of the error message:

Looks like your missing a / in links.cfg. See;

home/tea_land/cgi-bin/links/admin/data/links.db

Double check your links.cfg file to see if it was just a silly mistake Wink
