Another Can't locate admin thread...
Hello i'm having this error

Error including libraries: Can't locate /public_html/cgi-bin/links/admin/db.pl in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.7/i686-linux /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.7 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.7/i686-linux /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.7 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.4 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.3 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.2 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.1 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl .) at admin.cgi line 28.


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

My links.cfg file is this

# PATH and URL of Admin CGI directory. No Trailing Slash.
$db_script_path = "/public_html/cgi-bin/links/admin";
$db_dir_url = "http://faded-innocence.com/cgi-bin/links/admin";

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

# PATH and URL of Pages to be built. No Trailing Slash.
$build_root_path = "/public_html/diy/links";
$build_root_url = "http://faded-innocence.com/diy/links";


I have searched ALOT and i've reinstalled this script 3 times it's all the same error... I know you guys are getting tierd of answering the same question but i've tried everything the posts said.. still nothing

Thank you!

My first guess is that your path is incorrect/incomplete:

# PATH and URL of Admin CGI directory. No Trailing Slash.
$db_script_path = "/public_html/cgi-bin/links/admin";


Assuming you are on a shared server, there should be something in there specific to your account name, before the /public_html/ part. Your host should be able to provide the correct path info for you.
