When I try to open the file http://www.slavophilia.com/cgi-bin/links/admin/admin.cgi, I get the message "The requested URL /cgi-bin/links/admin/admin.cgi was not found on this server.Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request."

I checked perl path and absolute path. They are all correct. I also chmod 755 for the file. Please help.

Make sure that you have properly defined the following variable in your links.cfg file:


Make sure it is pointing to the exact directory location of your admin.cgi file.

I checked it but it seems alright. I still do not get the page. "Not Found" message keeps coming. The followings are what is in my links.cgf:

PATH and URL of Admin CGI directory. No Trailing Slash.
$db_script_path = "/home/slavophi/public_html/cgi-bin/links/admin";
$db_dir_url = "http://www.slavophilia.com/cgi-bin/links/admin";

# URL of User CGI directory. No Trailing Slash.
$db_cgi_url = "http://www.slavophilia.com/cgi-bin/links";

# PATH and URL of Pages to be built. No Trailing Slash.
$build_root_path = "/home/slavophi/public_html";
$build_root_url = "http://www.slavophilia.com";

$db_script_url = $db_dir_url . "/admin.cgi";

Well, I cannot even locate the URL. I get a unable to locate error message in MIE and a DNS Entry Error in Netscape when I try to access your site.

The configurations you have seem to be fine. The one question I have is::::

Is your cgi-bin directory a sub-directory of your public_html, or is it below your public_html directory?

If so, then you need to adjust your directory paths to what they are EXACTLY in your server.

My server seems to be down at this moment. Anyway, cgi-bin directory is not a sub directory. It is below the public_html directory. Does my server have to activate my cgi-bin directory to make fully function?

Then you need to change the variables you have in your links.cfg file to the following:

I tried your suggestion, but it does not work. I installed Links 2.0 before and it worked. I have no idea what is wrong. Really frustrated. Now I get "The page can not be found" message. Please help.

Welp...as Bugs Bunny says..."BBBB...That's All Folks".



I really don't know what to tell you.

I'm getting the same problem.... I have links installed in another domain in the same server... the paths are correct... the strange is that browser shows the TITLE and mounts the frame and in each part of the frame it says "File Not found" "/www.mysite.com/cgi-bin/admin/admin.cgi was not found in this server."...


What's the problem??

Thanx...

I solved the problem. My server use the "admin" directory to let me in to my adminstration directory of the server. It does not matter where the name is on the path. If the server recognizes the work "admin", it directs me to the admin directory of the server. So I changed the directory name "admin" to "adm" and it works now.
