What Is My Problem?!?
After I edit the default.cfg file to match the fields that I need for my database, I can't even get to the login screen when I try to access the DB online. I get the "DBMan encountered an internal error. Please enable debugging to view." message. I've checked all of the basics, ASCII upload, syntax, etc. but can't for the life of me figure anything out. I've even tried to turn on the debug feature and I still get nothing. I've been toiling with this since Friday and my patience is running thin. Please help.

The url is http://www.ministryjobs.net/cgi-bin/db.cgi

Thanks,

HI Jason,

I'm guessing that if the onnly change you have made is to db fields in the config file, you're problem may be in a misplaced comma.

Each of your db fields should have a comma following the entry except the last entry.
Example:
ID => [0, 'numer',-2, 8, 1, '', ''],
LastField => [1, 'numer',-2, 8, 1, '', '']

Try checking that first.

Thanks Karen, but unfortunately it doesn't seem to be that simple. I have uploaded a text version of my default.cfg file for anyone who might be willing to paruse it and give me some help. Thanks a bunch.

The text file is at:

Doesn't look like you have READ access permissions for .txt or .html files in your cgi-bin directory...I got an Internal Server Error when I tried to access the file. Put the file in a publicly accessible directory outside of your cgi-bin directory.
