help installing links2 at spaceports
I am in the process of moving my site from hypermart over to spaceports and I am having problems geting the links2 admin.cgi script by gossamer-threads.com to work. I keep geting an 500 error. I know that my system paths are correct what else can be wrong. Has anyone istalled it here? Is there anything special you have to do to set it up at spaceports. Do I have to start over from scratch with the database becuase it dosen't work if you move it someplace else. Need help thanks.

Sounds like one (or more) of the following:
a) trying to run the CGI scripts from your HTML server
b) trying to build your pages to the HTML server from the CGI server
c) you don't have the absolute path to links.cfg in the require lines in admin.cgi.

Yeah I had the same problem, the ads were over the top. I found out afterwards that apparently your meant to put a banner on each page of your site. Then they won't stick all those ads on. However I was never told this when I was with them. So yeah you could stick this banner code on your page and it'll get rid of all the ads.
