Expert Needed!

I have been trying to set the database up now for 4 days with no joy, let alone edit it! I have followed the instructions to the letter yet I always get and Internal error. PLEASE could someone take a look and advise.

http://www.titanappupdates.co.uk/cgi-bin/database/db.cgi

Here’s what I know

The servers are Windows 2000
The Perl location does not need to be specified see - (http://gossamer-threads.com/p/108916)
The files do not need to be converted to PL – made no difference
All the paths within the files have been set and are correct
The permissions have been set and work

According to my ISP, they say that there is an error within the script and it is making abnormal calls???

I have uploaded copies of the files in TXT format under the same location as above, PLEASE, PLEASE could someone shed some light. Is it the case that my ISP is somehow not supporting in someway??

Many thanks!!
Rich

Rich, your text files cannot be viewed in the cgi-bin directory. Can you please upload them to a location accessible via the web?

Um, I hate to ask the obvious, but did you try to view the files from within your browser... as they can be seen.... But for what ever reason, they are now also at..

www.titanappupdates.co.uk/db.txt
www.titanappupdates.co.uk/default.txt

Thanks for your time
Rich

Um ... yes I did. However, I tried to access the file which more people have problems with ... html.pl.txt

Rich, try removing the trailing slash in the $db_script_path located in db.cgi

$db_script_path = "e:\\domains\\titanappupdates.co.uk\\htdocs\\cgi-bin\\database\\"; <<< remove these

Actually, the $db_script_path variable should look like:

Hi guys,

I have tried both the above suggestions, but alas, neither work! Doh! any other ideas??

Thanks
Rich

Looks like you may have left a directory out of your $db_script_path:

Error Message:
Script Location : e:\domains\titanappupdates.co.uk\user\htdocs\cgi-bin\database\db.cgi

So try setting $db_script_path to:
e:/domains/titanappupdates.co.uk/user/htdocs/cgi-bin/database

Hope this helps.
