ID=no
My links.cfg is available for inspection at http://thechaos.net/links.cfg.txt
I don't understand why instead of assigning a number, all links are ID=no.
Clues please?

It this question not the same as the one I've already responded to?

Um, no.
This problem was part of that problem, but the rest of that problem is solved.
I'm not using the Jump urls except in the "Random Link" part, but it's still a great mystery to me why the ID numbers for everything is apparently "no".
I'm expecting something is not pointing to field [0], the ID field.
That's a guess.

Well if you aren't using jump.cgi, what is showing as ID=no ?

In the administrative section, when the pages are built, every link has "no" where the ID should be.
The random link function needs a proper ID number to function.
I gave you my password to the admin section earlier.
You can hit "build" and see my problem for yourself.

Open links.db - are the ID's in field one?

In links.db, the first entry in every line is "no" instead of there being a number there.
I'm completely stumped about this.

Did you add any new fields in your links.def file? If so, then your database is corrupted...you need to upgrade your database file anytime you add a new field in your %db_def section of links.def file.

I haven't done anything to the links.def file.

Here's what it looks like.
Thank you for helping me sort this out.
For now, I gave the first field in links.db numbers by hand.
