NEVER MIND!!! Smile

I searched the boards for "internal server error" - someone mentioned the FAQ, which I didn't find before, and it said permissions for add.cgi needed to be set at 755.

Then I remembered the problem I'd had with subscribe.pl earlier, and that I had redone permissions then. SO, I set add.pl at 755.

That didn't fix the problem, but it did allow me to see a complete error message when I clicked on "validate" in admin.cgi. It turns out that when I redid my templates yesterday, I failed to upload the email-del.txt files.

No one would have ever thought of that. You know most of our problems are caused by careless mistakes such as this. I just hope this helps someone else in the future.

Thanks for your help, and sorry I'm so long-winded,

Amanda
