jump.cgi errors galore - newbie needs help please
Hi everyone,

I had a running copy of Links 2.0 on my Linux server. Worked great on several domains, never had any problems with it. Moved it over to a Windows 2000 server and it up and died. Installed newest version of Perl, set permissions, etc. Have been banging my head against this for weeks now. Had it on 2 domains, decided to try to do it on a new domain to see if that would fix it, using the db from one of the other domains. Now getting the following error:

Error including libraries: Can't locate X:/D Sites/www/122wallstreet.com/cgi-bin/links/admin/db_utils.pl in @INC (@INC contains: X:\Dawns Sites\www\122wallstreet.com\cgi-bin\links /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.2/cygwin-thread-multi-64int /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.2 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.2/cygwin-thread-multi-64int /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.2 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl .) at X:\D Sites\www\122wallstreet.com\cgi-bin\links\jump.cgi line 36.

Make sure they exist, permissions are set properly, and paths are set correctly.


I'm not sure what to do now! I've tried everything, or at least thought I have. But obviously I'm overlooking something and can't see the forest through the trees.

Here is my jump.cgi:

#!X:\CGYWIN\bin\perl

print "Content-type: text/plain\n\n";
print "Error including libraries:

I've tried / and \ I've checked and double-checked the paths. I need a fresh pair of eyes to look at this please. I am clueless.
