I installed the script on hypermart.net. I runed the admin.pl but I get this error. In addition, when I run the script a file download window has opened. I download the file(cgi file) and I opened it in notepad. I saw this text:

Error including libraries: Can't locate /cgi-bin/admin//db.pl in @INC (@INC contains: /home/cgi-bin/admin /usr/libdata/perl/5.00503/mach /usr/libdata/perl/5.00503 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/i386-freebsd /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005 at /home/cgi-bin/admin/admin.cgi line 28.

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


What was wrong? Thanks.

Use the full path to db.pl in admin.cgi and the rest of the cgi scripts and get rid of the double //.

/home/cgi-bin/admin/db.pl

(Ps. This has been discussed lots of times already. You can find the answers using the search link).

Little note: Hypermart.net and Virtualave.net don't let you run directory scripts such as links 2 Frown Just in case you wonder why they suddenly delete the whole of your site Wink

I have been running Links on Hypermart.net for a number of years without any problems. Their terms of service prohibit Free For All links pages whereby links can be added automatically -- Links on the other hand requires validation of links by admin.

Yep, well, just stating what they say in the TOS Wink What you do about it is up to you!

Its a shame all the good free hosts that support CGI are dissapearing, or placing pop-ups everywhere you go Frown

It's called running a business Andy.
