Make sure they exist, permissions are set properly, and paths are set correctly.


Here's some of my links.cfg

# Paths and URL's to Important Stuff
# --------------------------------------------------------
# PATH and URL of Admin CGI directory. No Trailing Slash.
$db_script_path = "/home/s/su/suxx/public_html/cgi-bin/links/admin";
$db_dir_url = "http://home.no.net/suxx/cgi-bin/links/admin";

# URL of User CGI directory. No Trailing Slash.
$db_cgi_url = "http://home.no.net/suxx/cgi-bin";

# PATH and URL of Pages to be built. No Trailing Slash.
$build_root_path = "/home/s/su/suxx/public_html/links";
$build_root_url = "http://home.no.net/suxx/links";

# PATH and URL of What's New page. No Trailing slash.
$build_new_path = "$build_root_path/New";
$build_new_url = "$build_root_url/New";

# PATH and URL of What's Cool page. No Trailing slash.
$build_cool_path = "$build_root_path/Cool";
$build_cool_url = "$build_root_url/Cool";

# PATH and URL of What's Rating page. No Trailing slash.
$build_ratings_path = "$build_root_path/Ratings";
$build_ratings_url = "$build_root_url/Ratings";

Your Paths are wrong. They need to be;


# Paths and URL's to Important Stuff
# --------------------------------------------------------
# PATH and URL of Admin CGI directory. No Trailing Slash.
$db_script_path = "/home/p/pt/pt-home/public_html/suxx/cgi-bin/links/admin";
$db_dir_url = "http://home.no.net/suxx/cgi-bin/links/admin";

# URL of User CGI directory. No Trailing Slash.
$db_cgi_url = "http://home.no.net/suxx/cgi-bin";

# PATH and URL of Pages to be built. No Trailing Slash.
$build_root_path = "/home/p/pt/pt-home/public_html/suxx/links";
$build_root_url = "http://home.no.net/suxx/links";

# PATH and URL of What's New page. No Trailing slash.
$build_new_path = "$build_root_path/New";
$build_new_url = "$build_root_url/New";

# PATH and URL of What's Cool page. No Trailing slash.
$build_cool_path = "$build_root_path/Cool";
$build_cool_url = "$build_root_url/Cool";

# PATH and URL of What's Rating page. No Trailing slash.
$build_ratings_path = "$build_root_path/Ratings";
$build_ratings_url = "$build_root_url/Ratings";

HINT: Look in the error message;

Error including libraries: Can't locate admin/links.cfg in @INC (@INC contains: /home/p/pt/pt-home/public_html/suxx/cgi-bin /usr/lib/perl5/5.6.0/i386-linux /usr/lib/perl5/5.6.0 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.0/i386-linux /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.0 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl .) at /home/p/pt/pt-home/public_html/suxx/cgi-bin/search.cgi line 36.

Also, it sounds like you have messed up with your directory structure. From what I can see it looks like you have;

cgi-bin (with search.cgi, jump.cgi etc in)
cgi-bin/links (with the admin folder in)
cgi-bin/links/admin (with admin.cgi and other files etc)
and the rest of the folders.

What you really need to do is use the default folder locations, e.g.

cgi-bin (with search.cgi, jump.cgi etc in)
cgi-bin/admin (with admin.cgi and other files etc)
and the rest of the folders.

Hope this helps

Actually the structure should be something like:

# Paths and URL's to Important Stuff
# --------------------------------------------------------
# PATH and URL of Admin CGI directory. No Trailing Slash.
$db_script_path = "/home/p/pt/pt-home/public_html/suxx/cgi-bin/links/admin";
$db_dir_url = "http://home.no.net/suxx/cgi-bin/links/admin";

# URL of User CGI directory. No Trailing Slash.
$db_cgi_url = "http://home.no.net/suxx/cgi-bin/links";

# PATH and URL of Pages to be built. No Trailing Slash.
$build_root_path = "/home/p/pt/pt-home/public_html/suxx/links";
$build_root_url = "http://home.no.net/suxx/links";

You can find your correct server paths real easy. All you have to do is go to a directory with your ftp program and it will show you the correct path from your entry point. like /public-html/cgi-bin/links/admin/
just add the missing part /home/mysite/public-html/cgi-bin/links/admin/

Bob that is not always the case.

FTP programs sometimes only show relative paths.

The best way is "pwd" from telnet.

So hosts do not allow telnet

Or read your hosts FAQ - or use SSH or use:

foreach (sort keys %ENV) {
print "$key : $ENV{$key}\n";
}
