Links 2.0 was just installed on my server. Everything seems to work fine, besides that I can't execute the nph-verify and nph-built.cgi files. I receive an 500 error and I cannot figure out why. CHMOD settings should be correct, as well as the paths. The server-side error text reads like this: Error 500, system-bin/cgiexe host:turteshop.de

jeff,

other files: add.cgi, search.cgi, etc. are working ?

Thanx, Nicky, for your reply. Since I notice that you are German as well, I posted an answer to your counter-question in the German forum.

For others who would like to help me:

Yes, all other cgis seem to be working propperly. I can handle the links and catergory-sections in the admin-area without any problem. The 500 occurs only when I try to run "Build", "Staggered" and "Verifying Links" options.

It seems that your servers do not allow nph files to execute, right?

GO TO THE FAQ IN THE LINKS 2.0 SECTION OF THE RESOURCE CENTER AND READ THE FAQ ABOUT NPH FILES!

I am having the same problem. It seems to be a Cobalt issue with regards to their using cgiwrap with nph scripts. There are other posts which suggests solutions. Nothing has worked for me yet.
I am using Link Sql 1.1
I'll let you know if i get it to work.

What I did was to remark the following in nph-build.cgi:

$nph++;

to

# $nph++;

It did it for me,

That acturly works just fine HairyPete.
thanks, i've been working with that problme for a while
