Installation Errors
I have installed and set-up evrything in the instructions, but I am getting the following errors.

Error Message : Error loading required libraries.
Check that they exist, permissions are set correctly and that they compile.

Reason: Can't locate .http://208.185.97.161/cgi-bin/dbman/html.pl in @INC (@INC contains: . /usr/libdata/perl5/5.00503/i386-bsdos /usr/libdata/perl5/5.00503 /usr/libdata/perl5/site_perl/i386-bsdos /usr/libdata/perl5/site_perl /usr/libdata/perl5/site_perl/i386-bsdos/include .) at default.cfg line 51.

The file is there.
The attributes are correct and I have Uploaded all in ASCII

Anyone have suggestions?

The problem resides in your db.cgi with the $db_script_path variable. This needs to be set to the ABSOLUTE PATH where your DBMAN files are located.

In Reply To:
# If you run into problems, set $db_script_path to the full path
# to your directory.
$db_script_path = ".";
This is taken from the out-of-the box db.cgi file.

full path means ABSOLUTE path, not the RELATIVE path to your DBMAN files.

So, you would need to put something like the following:

Code:

$db_script_path = "/absolute/path/to/account/cgi-bin/dbman";


with no trailing slash.

The best thing to do is to leave

$db_script_path = ".";

the way it is to start with. If you're having problems, try everything else before you change that. I have rarely seen users who needed to change the $db_script_path setting.
