report a dead link
I just downloaded the report a bad link plugin. I have just upgraded my linksSQL. When you go to a category and a user clicks report a dead link, the user is able to download the cgi file bad_link.cgi... I know this problem seems to have an easy answer, but I don't know what it is.

I tried chmod 755 (already done), any other ideas?

Thanks for the help,

Found the problem... there is a line that needs to be marked out in the bad_link.cgi.

It is a print statement in the middle of the code that should not exist.


# print "The ID was found, the rec is ", %$rec, "<br><BR>";

Since the header is not printed first, it gives an error. I am going to try and do some updates to this mod... Will get back to this forum...


Super duper,

Hi,

This has been reported, some how the file in the GT archives got mixed up.

I think there is a newer version in the forums here. Check, I think there is another subtle error that was fixed as well.

A newer version/update is in the works, for release with a bunch of other stuff shortly.
