When adding a new record, it puts the correct ID # in the ID field, but after I build the database, all ID #s are changed to "No"

What could be causing this? Anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks!

I checked my PERL, and I do have the Socket module installed. Any other suggestions? This is really baffling me...

Probably because you have added in a field in the links.def file without updating your links.db file with the new field column you added in the links.def.

If you search for No Yes ID, you should find other Threads where this problem has been discussed.

Yes, I did add fields.
But I did all that before I established any data, so the links.db file was empty.
Howevery, I did delete all fields, except the category field (and added others of my own).

Welp...that is your other problem...Deleting the following fields will cause a problem with the build process:

1) isNew
2) isPopular
3) Votes
4) Rating
5) Hits

Again...I would search the Links 2.0 Forums for Threads that address this issue as it has been discussed quite a few times.
