Validation Error
What does this mean? I know I don't have LWP, but those two links are active. Anyone knows?

The first part of that is normal and is displayed when there is no LWP.

The problem with the link is exactly what it says. In the links.db, the URL ends without a "/" but, when going to the link, a "/" is added by the remote server. It is telling you to add the "/" to your URL in links.db. That is not mandatory, but failing to do it will result in the same error everythime you verify the links.

I hope this helps.

Thanks Bobsie, Does this mean the forward slash has to be added for all urls?

Also, what is the deal with the LWP. Is this something I can install or what do I have to do to get my host to install it?

Thanks

If they point to a directory but not a document, they should end with a the slash.

Send a message and ask your host about it. They might already have it done but just not configured right.

My host says Module LWP 5.36 is already installed. But this is the error I get. Any clues?
