Error including libraries: links.cfg????
Error including libraries: links.cfg did not return a true value at admin.cgi line 41.
Make sure they exist, permissions are set properly, and paths are set correctly.

whats up with this?! the url to the links thing is http://server2046.virtualave.net/ehax0r/cgi-bin/links/admin/admin.cgi?

Check the syntax of your admin.cgi and links.cfg files via telnet:

Code:

perl -c admin.cgi


AND

Code:

perl -c links.cfg

Try re-uploading links.cfg, this normally sorts out the problem with installs i have done (if not, get a fresh copy of links.cfg from the zip file, and edit it to go on your site). If all fails, contact me via private message and i will have a look if you want...

Hi Acid,

Had the same problem the other day and did exactly what Andy is saying.. get a "clean" links.cfg abd edit it.:0

I had "inadvertently" deleted some code which caused my error.

It can also be caused by either links.cfg or admin.cgi being uploaded or edited in binary mode.
