dreaded 500 server error NEED HELP PLEASE
I have been realy struggling to get this cgi pro up and running. I've read the readme directoryand followed it through double checking everthing.
I have only set permissions on the .cgi file but it should still work yeah? I have been told to only use chmod755 or i will run into problems. Someone plese give me some ideas.
Thanks Ben

You need to check the following:

1) Perl path (1st line of files)
2) Path to the links.cfg in all your CGI scripts. It should be the COMPLETE ABSOLUTE PATH to the links.cfg file.

EXAMPLE:

Code:

require "/absolute/path/to/cgi-bin/links/admin/links.cfg";
