Directories
Hi...I'm new to this script.
When I read the instructions in the readme file, I was confused as to which files go in which direcories.
I made a directory called Links in my CGI-Bin, and then made another called Admin in the Links Directory.

Ending up with this:

CGI-Bin/Links
CGI-Bin/Links/Admin

Then I uploaded in ACSII ALL the files into
CGI-Bin/Links/ for the time being.
I'm not sure which of these files stay there, and which ones go into the Admin Dir.

Can anyone clarify the directions on this specific problem for me?

I didnt want to go any farther, just to be "guessing" and get frustrated. (Has happened to me many times before)

Thanks,

Didn't you extract the .zip archive with the use folder names option checked? That's the easiest way! Smile All you need to do then is upload /links2/cgi-bin/* to your cgi-bin/links (if you want it in a subdirectory) and /links2/pages/* to your htdocs. BTW, keep all your paths in lower case; CGI-Bin is not the same as cgi-bin on UNIX systems.

Take a look at the FAQ on file location/permissions in the resources section.
