Change the file extensions
Hi!
I´ve download the files a week ago but when I checked whid my web host, thay forced my to change all file-extensions to only *.cgi and *.dat. I changed default.count to count.dat, default.log to log.dat, default.cfg to default.cgi, html.pl to html.cgi auth.pl to auth.cgi and I´ve modyfied the code. But it won´t work. What would I do?

Did you change the paths and file extensions in your default.cfg file?

Thanks for the answer!
Yes I did I think I´ve change it all. But when I try to open the database it says:
Failed to execute 'db.cgi' as user 'x6480'
(my directory is cgi.web.telia.com/~x6480/cgi/)
Why?

Put the absolute/physical path to your db.cgi file in the db.cgi where it reads $db_script_path, like the following:

/mnt/guide/attech/cgi-bin/dbman

OR

C:/Inetpub/wwwroot/MySite/cgi-bin/dbman
