Build Server Error
I have uploaded, configured, and chmoded everything to the best of my ability..
For some reason when I go to build pages I get an "internal server error", I have run out of ideas on what to do.

everything is open, no passwords have been set yet, everything can be viewed at
"http://tailchaser.tigereyes.com"

Do the top lines of your .cgi files point to the correct path to perl on your system?

Yes they do, it points to the same thing on all the .cgi files.

#!/usr/bin/perl

The build and verify seem to be the only scripts not working. I can run admin.cgi, add links, catagories, and edit templates without any problems. those two seem to be the only ones giving me an error. If you need to see the code for any of the pages let me know.

Hmmm... well since both those scripts that do not work are nph scripts, perhaps your server is one of those that do not allow nph scripts to run. Or perhaps it is a cgiwrap problem. In either case, I suggest you contact your ISP and ask about running nph scripts on your server. They may be able to shed some light on the problem.

What is the difference between nph and other scripts? Are there any lines inside the script I can change to make it a "normal" script, or, does it require the use of this nph stuff?

I got around the nph thing by commenting all the
Code:
print "HTTP/1.0 200 OK\n" if ($db_iis or $nph);
entries
I have two more questions.

How do I password protect the admin directory?
and
How do I redirect all requests for http://tailchaser.tigereyes.com" to "http://tailchaser.tigereyes.com/cgi-bin/pages"?
