I have another program that intergrates Links and it ask the following questions.
Complete URL of the Gossamer Threads search.cgi script:
Complete server path of the Gossamer Threads data files:
What is the correct answer?
Thanks

Which program is that?

Those values should be in the Links.pm file.

If it integrated that well, it should just ask for the location of that file, and it should be able to figure it out.

Buildacommunity Auto Homepage. If I ask you to find the answer to the 2 questions. What would you type in? It's really the second location I don't know.
As always thanks for your time.

If it was made to work with Links SQL, and Links 2.0, I would imagine it means the .../pages/ directory, as those are the only "data" files the program stores.

In links 2.0, there was a "data" directory where the databases were kept. That is now kept in the MySQL database.

Thanks again for the post. I got a "they keep changing their program." answer from builacommunity. I think I'll lay back until the Links SQL update comes out.

The program hasn't changed in over a year, since the new version came out, and that isn't a "change" it's a new version.

From that response, there is a good chance the program doesn't know about the SQL version at all, and is trying to read the data (the database itself) directly. Not a good idea.
