I hadn't tried this yet as I have been busy putting links in. Went to run Link Status and received the following error. Mean anything to anybody :) Can I get a show of hands, all the people here running on WIndows NT so I dont feel so all alone hehe

GT::IPC::Run::Win32 (137): could not make stderr pipe: Bad file descriptor at C:\domains\roofseek\admin\nph-verify.cgi line 385.

I've seen a few instances of the verify code not working in windows even when it should and it isn't fun debugging it either. Did it work with Links SQL 2.2.1?

Adrian

Yes it did work in 1 & 2. There were definitely some screens and things I couldnt do without flooding the screen with Klingon religious tomes but that wasn't one of them :)

Should I debug and toss some screens here for you to puzzle over ?

Unfortunately, Windows does very strange things and returns errors on simple system calls. We haven't been able to find a solution to it, but the old verify code from Links SQL 2.x works. If you e-mail support, we can get you the nph-verify files from Links SQL 2.x that work in Windows.
