Error 500, File Permissions, and links.cfg
Does anyone know what things admin.cgi depends on to at least be able to run? I keep getting a 500 error even though the path is set correctly and the permissions on all .cgi files are set to 755 and all other permissions are set to what is specefied in the readme file. Do I need to do something with the permissions on the 'new', 'cool', and 'ratings' directories maybe?

Thanks,

Yes...you need to have the 'new', 'cool', and 'ratings' directory set to 777 (rwxrwxrwx). Refer to the README file.

But that does not affect the problems you having with the admin.cgi file. Read the Topics in this Forum about "Required Libraries".
