Hi
I have installed the script, got the error, set the debug on, and had a strange message, then read the messages here, tried some of the answers, now I get the error again, but debug would not work.

If anyone would like to help, the script and the default cfg are at
http://www.aralist.com/db.txt
http://www.aralist.com/default.txt

Thanx in advance

Not sure whether there may be other problems but, the following line needs to be changed to identify your complete URL.
# URL of the directory dbman resides in. No Trailing Slash Please.
$db_dir_url = "/home/alist/www/cgi-bin";

Should be something like:

# URL of the directory dbman resides in. No Trailing Slash Please.
$db_dir_url = "http://mydomain.com/cgi-bin";

Thanx Karen for looking at it, I did the changes, still have the same problem :(

Hello Hani, in db.cgi - change the following line back to what it had been in the original download. Very, very seldom does someone need to change that variable.

# If you run into problems, set $db_script_path to the full path
# to your directory.
$db_script_path = "/home/alist/www/cgi-bin";

Change to:
$db_script_path = ".";

Double check your path to perl (first line) while reviewing the file.

Strange, I did all that, and it did not work.

Anyway, I have installed it on a different server now, it still gives the internal error, but it shows the criptic debug screen

url is: http://www.yahala.com/cgi-bin/dbman/db.cgi

copy of the text files are at www.yahala.com/db.txt and default.txt though I just changed the perl path for yahala, and the url

I really appreciate your help Karen, Thanx a million, and whenever it is, Happy thanxgiving :)

Hello Hani, your database is accessible at http://www.yahala.com/cgi-bin/dbman/db.cgi - I was able to login with no problems.

How cool - you knew about the US Thanksgiving holiday! My day was shared with friends & family.

Okay, I deleted the whole thing and installed it back again, and now I get this, if you can please check it

Thanx in advance

Your database appears to be working fine.

The message you are receiving is part of the debug information. If everything in your DB is working fine, you can turn debugging off by setting $db_debug to 0 in default.cfg.
