Hello Alex,

Using 1.02 version of Links SQL. Tried to installa all again and had a nightmare. It does not seems like that I may be able to make it in the year of 1999. What a horror to use it. One starts with great expectations and ends in disappointments.

I do not understand why the following message appears...........
------------------------------------------------
1-Building Pages ...

Backing up database ...
Backing up links data ...
Content-type: text/html

Software error:

Can't use an undefined value as an ARRAY reference at Links/DBSQL.pm line 872.
----------------------------------------
2-View / Add or Search in Links table of Admin.

Content-type: text/html

Software error:

Can't use an undefined value as a HASH reference at Links/DBSQL.pm line 472.
-------------------------------------------
3 - In Admin if I click Re-index then

Software error:

Fatal Error: Unable to execute query:
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM
. Reason: You have an error in your SQL syntax near '' at line 3 at admin/nph-index.cgi line 47
----------------------------------
4 -
Verifying Links
Quick Check
Detailed

Verifying started on Sun Aug 22 15:34:05 1999
Using IO::Socket.

No further activity reported. It stops.
-------------------------------------
5 - In Admin I click on one of the following :
Categories
View
Add
Delete
Modify

Then I get

Links SQL Administration: Search the Database
Search the Database

But .............. no information. So I do the search. I try to search the term rajani from the database then I get ........

Software error:

Can't use an undefined value as a HASH reference at Links/DBSQL.pm line 472.

If I click on List all then

Search Failed

There were problems with the search. Reason: No search terms were specified.

If I click Modify category, then there is no list appearing of the categories that are already in the database.
-----------------------------------
6 - Add a New Links from the admin.

It does not show and form. Even then, if I click on add a new link to see what happens then,

Software error:

Can't use an undefined value as a HASH reference at Links/DBSQL.pm line 1157.

Reset form does not pick up the click, i.e. does not work.
----------------------------------------
7 - In DBSQL.pm line 173 I need to specify the driver there and only then it works, otherwise it gives a software error, connect error. So the array made few lines above it does not make sense.


By the way has someone got this version 1.02 working?
