Dear, Webmasters!

I have setup Linkadmin 2.0 and all works, except when i try to validate my links it can't find the file: validate.db. Reason: No such file or directory

I'm quite sure about that all paths and other config. has been setup correctly in all files.

The error message i get:


CGI ERROR

Any help would be very appricated.

Best, Tomas!

I assume you've checked that validate.db is actually at:

/usr/local/etc/httpd/vhosts/surfguiden.com/htdocs/linkadmin/data/

? (no "cgi-bin" in the path?)

Also, be sure to check that validate.db is chmod 666.
