Add Link Don't Work
Hi again, got another booboo :(

I'm able to add links from the admin.cgi but visitors are unable to add links.

When trying to add a link, i fill out the form and click the button, I get NO errors it just returns back to the add resource page.

I checked the premissions and the tags and they are all correct.

any ideas what is wrong??

--------------
Thanks for ya attention in this matter.

As discussed before in this forum...

1) Check to make sure that your Mailer.pm file is uploaded in your $db_lib_path directory as defined in the links.cfg file.

2) Make sure that you have the correct SENDMAIL OR SMTP configurations in EITHER your $db_mail_path OR $db_smtp_server variables. Do not configure BOTH. Only one or the other.

3) Make sure that you have the following variable configured:

Code:

$db_mailer_log = '/path/to/cgi-bin/links/admin/mailer.log';


in the links.cfg file. Change the path to your ABSOLUTE path to the mailer.log file.

4) Make sure that you have the correct name in your Submit button, like the following:

Code:

<input type="hidden" name="process_form" value="Submit Link">

It wasn't just the paths that I suggested you look at. Did you make sure that the Mailer.pm file is in the $db_lib_path directory as defined in the links.cfg file?

Also, the permission of all your .pm files should be 644 (rw-r--r--).

Yes, i did all ya asked the first time around, after ya last reply i checked to make sure that the permission of the .pm files were at 644, and they were.

And yes the Mailer.pm file is in the $db_lib_path directory.

Probably a problem with your sub site_html_add_success and sub site_html_add_failure routines.

I tried your form and all it did was re-load the page.
