    Anyone Good or Experienced With Links 2.0 Installation?

    If anyone here is experienced with Links 2.0 used for linklists and the installtion of it, please hit me up or if you are willing to offer some advice for the installation, would be much appreciated. I get stuck around here, from the ReadMe file...


    4. Edit links.cfg and set as a minimum:

    - PATH to your admin directory, this is a system path, not a URL! If you
    get an error message about not finding a file, look at the SCRIPT_FILENAME
    variable for clues on the proper path!
    $db_script_path = "/alex/links/cgi-bin/admin";
    - URL to your admin directory. This should start with 'http://'.
    $db_dir_url = "http://localhost/links/cgi-bin/admin";
    - URL of where your user cgi is kept. If you kept the default installation,
    it will just be one level below the admin directory.
    $db_cgi_url = "http://localhost/links/cgi-bin";
    - PATH to where your pages are built. This should be a system path, not a URL.
    $build_root_path = "/alex/links/pages";
    - URL of where your pages are.
    $build_root_url = "http://localhost/links/pages";

    - Set one of either:
    $db_mail_path = ''; $db_smtp_server = '';
    If you are on NT, set $db_smtp_server to your SMTP server. If you are on UNIX,
    set $db_mail_path to your sendmail program.
    - Set the email address for who all emails will come from:
    $db_admin_email = '';



    this is the link i am supposed to run to set it up, but no luck. I get an error, any help would be much appreciated.

    not sure but that error prob means that you didn't CHMOD the directory properly

    check the readme file again

    could be wrong but at least it's a bump ;)

        Hehe, thanks for the bump. I think it is a CHmod problem too, but i used the proper numbers or chmods that the ReadMe file said to use.
