Validate problem
Hello,

Whenever I click on validate from admin.cgi I get the error message below:

-------------------------------------
CGI ERROR
==========================================
Error Message : unable to open validation file: /INetPub/wwwroot/affiliation/cgi/links-affiliation/admin/data/validate.db. Reason: No such file or directory
Script Location : D:\InetPub\wwwroot\affiliation\cgi\links-affiliation\admin\admin.cgi
Perl Version : 5.00503

-------------------

I don't understand why, I have this file and some sites to validate in, please help!

Change the permission of your validate.db file to the following:

Owner: Read, Write
Group: Read, Write
Everyone: Read, Write

Change permissions via FTP or NT Explorer. If you have physical access to your account via the NT Explorer, then change the permissions of the following users:

IWAM/MACHINENAME: Read, Write
IUSR/MACHINENAME: Read, Write
EVERYONE: Read, Write

Also, search the NT Installation Forum for more assistance.

Regards,
