Relocating troubles
I followed all the advice from the resource section on relocating your scripts. So, did this and I have a couple of questions.

All the categories link to the old site still. When I rebuild will it correct that or do I need to do something else.

So, my second problem :) I can't seem to build. I get the message below. I'm sure I've overlooked something - but blast the heat is getting to my brain (or that is my excuse)

CGI ERROR
==========================================
Error Message : Error building! Links database is 0 bytes!
Script Location : nph-build.cgi
Perl Version : 5.00404

Thanks for your time

Do you have any LINKS in your links.db file? If not, then you need to upload your old links.db in the data directory and change its permissions to READ/WRITE (666).

I do have links :) BUT when I reviewed the file transfer it listed 0-bytes on the links.db- so I transferred again and it worked. Thank you. Shoot I feel silly, I really do try to check to make sure the files really did transfer, really!!

I bow to your wisdom.
