We never have enough of them, but try to get rid of the $ sign:
$build_new_path = "$/home/kemetonline/www/links2/New";
It should be:
$build_new_path = "$build_root_path/New";
$build_new_url = "$build_root_url/New";
$build_new_path = "$/home/kemetonline/www/links2/New";
It should be:
$build_new_path = "$build_root_path/New";
$build_new_url = "$build_root_url/New";
