Installation problems
Can someone tell me where I have screwed up. I have just installed Links v2 and got the following error when I tested it;

Error including libraries: Can't locate e:/virtualhosts/together.com/www/sun_set/links/cgi_bin/admin/db.pl in @INC (@INC contains: e:/virtualhosts/together.com/www/sun_set/cgi_bin/links/admin D:\perl\lib D:\perl\site\lib .) at e:/virtualhosts/together.com/www/sun_set/cgi_bin/links/admin/admin.cgi line 28.
Make sure they exist, permissions are set properly, and paths are set correctly.


This is how my links.cfg is configured;

=====================================================================

# Paths and URL's to Important Stuff
# --------------------------------------------------------
# PATH and URL of Admin CGI directory. No Trailing Slash.
$db_script_path = "e:/virtualhosts/together.com/www/sun_set/links/cgi_bin/admin";

# URL of User CGI directory. No Trailing Slash.
$db_cgi_url = "http://www.together.com/sun_set/links/cgi_bin";

# PATH and URL of Pages to be built. No Trailing Slash.
$build_root_path = "e:/virtualhosts/together.com/www/sun_set/links/pages";
$build_root_url = "http://www.together.com/sun_set/links/pages";

# PATH and URL of What's New page. No Trailing slash.
$build_new_path = "$build_root_path/New";
$build_new_url = "$build_root_url/New";

$build_ratings_url = "$build_root_url/Ratings";

# Database Options

# then turn this off at your own risk!

# Field number of category in category.db
$db_main_category = 1;

# Email Options
# --------------------------------------------------------
# NOTE: Be sure to edit the text of the message. It can be found
# in the templates directory: email-add.txt, email-del.txt and
# email-mod.txt respectively.

# Set only ONE of either $db_mail_path which should go to a
# mail program like sendmail, or $db_smtp_server which will use
# a SMTP server. Do not set both at once!

# PATH of sendmail.
$db_mail_path = 'c:\winnt\wsendmail.exe';

# Email address of the administrator. BE SURE TO SET!
$db_admin_email = '';

# Notify visitors automatically when their links are validated?
$db_email_add = 0;

# Notify visitors automatically when their links are modified?
$db_email_modify = 0;

# Log all outgoing messages? Put the full path to a logfile and make sure it
# exists and is writeable (chmod 666 -rw-rw-rw-). This logfile can get pretty
# big!
$db_mailer_log = '';

# Build Options
