Errors after moving servers
Hi,
i recently moved server from a Solaris box running apache to a redhat box running apache:

My version of links version2 I simply tarred accross and placed on the new server:

I changed my links.cfg and admin.cgi to represent the new paths and changed the perl path in all cgi to represent my new path.

After redoing all permissions I can now successfully build the lings database via the control panel (Thanks to all the descriptive permissions responses) however the main links cgi files jump/rate etc all return a 500 error when accessed via the browser.

all the files in /links/cgi-bin are chmod 755 and the perl path is correct

The error log returns premature headers and links does not allow me to debug via the command line 'perl jump.cgi'

Anyone got any suggestions of where I have gone wrong?

Thanks in advance

Dave

Did you set the HITS, RATES and PAGES directories to Chmod 777 (drwxrwxrwx)? Data- and Template-Files must be set to Chmod 666, .pl-Files should be set to Chmod 644...
