Hi, as a relative newbie to scripts (this is my third) I am having a slight problem with installing Links 2.0. I have uploaded all the files to my cgi-bin and to the css and background image to a test directory on my website of my website (site already live so will amend later when I know I can install).
I have then altered the paths and URLs (I thought correctly
) and tried accessing admin.cgi through my browser at this point I get a download with the following error message:
I have enclosed an extract of my links.cfg to see if any of you big hearted people could put me out of misery!
$db_script_path = "d:/inetpub/elyc.org.uk/cgi-bin/links/cgi-bin/admin";
$db_dir_url = "http://www.elyc.org.uk/.../links/cgi-bin/admin";
# URL of User CGI directory. No Trailing Slash.
$db_cgi_url = "http://www.elyc.org.uk/cgi-bin/links/cgi-bin";
# PATH and URL of Pages to be built. No Trailing Slash.
$build_root_path = "d:/inetpub/elyc.org.uk/webroot/test/pages";
$build_root_url = "http://www.elyc.org.uk/test/links/pages";
I am sure this is really basic - for which I am sorry, and I know you get many requests for help with paths which I have looked at!! But I am obviously less than a mere mortal!
Thanks for your help
Mike
I have then altered the paths and URLs (I thought correctly

Error including libraries: Can't locate /cgi-bin/links/cgi-bin/admin/db.pl at
d:\inetpub\elyc.org.uk\cgi-bin\links\admin\admin.cgi line 28.
Make sure they exist, permissions are set properly, and paths are set correctly.
