What does this mean?
I've installed Links but the script attempts to download when calling the admin.cgi
---------------------------------------------
This is the error I get once downloaded:Error including libraries: Can't locate /cgi-bin/admin/db.pl in @INC (@INC contains: D:\209.35.80.112\cgi-bin\links\admin C:\Perl\5.00502\lib/MSWin32-x86-object C:\Perl\5.00502\lib C:\Perl\site\5.00502\lib/MSWin32-x86-object C:\Perl\site\5.00502\lib C:\Perl\site\lib .) at D:\209.35.80.112\cgi-bin\links\admin\admin.cgi line 28.

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

my paths are as follow:

# PATH and URL of Admin CGI directory. No Trailing Slash.
$db_script_path = "/cgi-bin/admin";
$db_dir_url = "http://203.35.80.112/cgi-bin/admin";

# URL of User CGI directory. No Trailing Slash.
$db_cgi_url = "http://203.35.80.112/links/cgi-bin";

# PATH and URL of Pages to be built. No Trailing Slash.
$build_root_path = "/links/pages";
$build_root_url = "http://203.35.80.112/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";

# PATH and URL of What's Cool page. No Trailing slash.
$build_cool_path = "$build_root_path/Cool";
$build_cool_url = "$build_root_url/Cool";

# PATH and URL of What's Rating page. No Trailing slash.
$build_ratings_path = "$build_root_path/Ratings";
$build_ratings_url = "$build_root_url/Ratings";

I am on a IIS so I put 1 in here:

Use IIS headers? Set this to 1 if your web server needs the full headers (HTTP/1.0 etc.)
$db_iis = 1;

I had a problem like this, but I fixed it. All you have to do is putting this \209.35.80.112\cgi-bin\...
in your links.cfg.
