Hi Atlas,

thanks for the suggestion, I had added a link before I tried to build which is why it was so perplexing..best..janet

Did you validate the links?

Hi Janet,

This is not the correct place for this question unfortunately.

As it is Links2 related it should go in the Links2 Installation forum.

However the error is caused by your database being empty. Add a link and a category from the admin area (or from add.cgi remembering to validate) and the error will go away.
