Home, What's New, What's Cool, and top rated erros
I installed links 2 on virtualave's server. Everything works fine except when I click on whats new, home, whats cool or top rated. I get a page not found error. I think that the server has to have a slash at the end of the url to get it to work correctly.

OK I tried to put a slash at the end of the pages that are getting erros in the links.cfg file but when I put the slash at the end of cool or the others and rebuild the pages. The page doesn't want to put the slash at the end of the links? Can anybody help??

Can you take a look at my page at:
http://jhoskins.virtualave.net/cgi-bin/links/pages/

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks

Hmm, Im not very sure of VirtualAve, but if you think that would fix it, open links.cfg and add trailing slash at the end of the 404 pages.

See if the thread at http://www.gossamer-threads.com/...um2/HTML/000886.html doesn't solve your problem.

I hope this helps.

Bobsie, I found a quicker solution I think!

Just adding a "/" in the following areas (note my menu is slightly different)

[<a href="<%build_root_url%>/">Home</a>]
[<a href="<%db_cgi_url%>/add.cgi">Add a Resource</a>]
[<a href="<%build_root_url%>/New/">New</a>]
[<a href="<%build_root_url%>/Cool/">Cool</a>]
[<a href="<%build_root_url%>/Ratings/">Top Rated</a>]
[<a href="<%db_cgi_url%>/search.cgi">Search</a>]

Hope this helps

Guy
