i had install links2 to several service, but when it come to virtual ave, i gave up. here is my admin.cgi
http://www.khmerkrom.com/cgi-bin/admin/admin.cgi
i did upload it in ascci.
any help is appreciated, r.t

I use virtualave.net and I was able to get it to work What I found was that the directory path is actualy "/u/{sitename}/cgi-bin/" This is what I used to get it to work.

I have found virtualave to be a challenge, but I am starting to figure them out.

link to my links.cfg

You've got too many double-qoutes on a few things in links.cfg:

did took off the quotes, but still struggle.

did you look at this thread:

www.gossamer-threads.com/scripts/forum/resources/Forum2/HTML/001722.html

and VirtualAve's FAQ for CGI?
www.virtualave.net/faqcgi.html

I downloaded you admin.cgi, and found this:

I'm positive you need to change anything that begins with "/u/thachret" to "/home/thachret" or "/home/thachret/public_html"

Looking at your links.cfg I notice that you're using trailing slashes.
Off course your link to your home-linking-page works this way, but now your not being able to open your New, Cool etc. pages.

I've edited all my templates and removed all the slashes after the <%build_root_url%> and <%build_root_path%>,
but still some pages won't open the right way and I'm send to s19.virtualave.net

Anyone an idea?
