Hi,

Is this on Unix?

If so, you may need to set some permissions on the directories.

After using the install program, if installed via telnet, rather than the web, I need to change the permissions of the defs, templates, and plugins directories to 777 all the way down the line. ( chmod -R 777 ). 500 errors are script errors, but sometimes that has been caused by failed permissions.

If that doesn't work, double check the paths in your admin, and make sure they are really what you need for the program to run.

Some servers use "virtual" path techniques, so that the webserver "sees" the directory layout differently than the telnet or ftp user does.

In that case, the *only* real way to make it work is to uninstall your links, and reinstall via the web interface. You might need your host to change some permimssions for you after you do that, so you can edit the files via telnet (unless they have already taken that into account in setting up your server/account system).

good luck :)
