You said you had to change the permissions of each category directory manually. I said, how can you do that because you are supposed to be building in a new location where the category directories didn't previously exist. Seems like you are still building in the same place.

No i don't rebuild in the same place.
I have changed this from links.cfg to build in a new folder.
Any help or opinion should be appriciated.

If it isn't letting you build, chmod the directory you are building in to 777.

It was already chmoded o 777.
But since i couldn't build the next cat i chmoded to 766 (in links.cfg)and it rebuild succesfully all the categories.
But unfortunantly when i clicked on a cat to view i received error 500.
Here is now the problem.

I have ftp my site and i saw that only none category folder was created .
My server is http://www.virtualave.net and i know that it cannot accept permissions unless it is 644 and greater.

Searching this forum i found that

777 = 511

so i assume that is the reason why i cannot build cat.
Every category folder have permission 511.

Do you also think that???
Is anybody else who have Links 2 hosted on virtualave.net?

Yes...

Delete all the existing categories and pages built in the admin
folder, specify a new $build_root_path and $build_root_url
in your links.cfg file.

Then in change the permission of the new folder outside your
cgi-bin/admin to 777 and create the folders in that
folder:

New
Cool
Ratings

Change the permission of those folders to 777.
========================================
Buh Bye!

Cheers,
Me

Ok after hard work i found the problem:

In my links.cfg where it says to set permission for categories folders it was set to 777 and not to 0777 as it should be.
