error adding 'a' new category in admin
I'm trying to install links 2.0 on a coblat raq4
I have modified what had to be, in the nph files
I have the following error:
Adding 'a' new category in admin, brings up admin.cgi again in the frame.

You are probably using the wrong paths in links.cfg

# PATH and URL of Admin CGI directory. No Trailing Slash.
$db_script_path = "/home/sites/site46/web/v3/links/admin";
$db_dir_url = "http://djgateway.com/v3/links/admin";

# URL of User CGI directory. No Trailing Slash.
$db_cgi_url = "http://djgateway.com/v3/links";

# PATH and URL of Pages to be built. No Trailing Slash.
$build_root_path = "/home/sites/site46/web/v3/links/pages";
$build_root_url = "http://djgateway.com/v3/links/pages";

I have double checked my config, multiple times.
I have checked my permissions as well.
Any Ideas on why admin is showing up in the frame?
Are the variables being passed to the right script?
Here is what http://www.djgateway.com/v3/links/admin/admin.cgi 'Categories' > 'Add' puts out in the html
<form action="http://djgateway.com/v3/links/admin/admin.cgi" method="POST">
Looks correct to me,.. something else is wrong?

My Admin is not protected go ahead and look http://www.djgateway.com/v3/links/admin/admin.cgi
Thank you,

Have either of you made changes to admin_html.pl or admin.cgi? It looks like it is not finding the code that was sent as POST (in the URL). I have never had this problem, and the only way i can think of it doing this is when you edit either of the two above files!

Only editing that has been done, are the nph files, nothing more. If I knew this code better, as well as perl. I would debug it. By seeing if and how the variables are being passed. If this was in php, i could apply what I know.

Any perl know hower wana help me?
