Installation Help PLEASE!!
Hi,

If anyone could help me Id GREATLY appreciate it. Im installing the dbman and run db.cgi and the login screen appears, but with the debug error message is below it. Ok, then I login in and get the famous 404 error with the URL being: http://www.colajoe.com/cgi-binhttp://www.colajoe.com/cgi-bin.

Ok, here is the debug error message if that may help.
*******

DBMan encountered an internal error.

I removed a few things for security, but besides that, I think the above should help?

Take the URL part out of $db_script_url

It should read:
# URL of dbman.
$db_script_url = $db_dir_url . "/db.cgi";
