I had the same thing with one of my .cgi, I don't remember wich one though. Out of fustration I unpacked the file again, changed the location of my PERL and saved it as a .cgi instead of .pl and presto it worked. Have no Idea what was wrong. I recomend replace admin.pl with admin.pl from the distro again and then make sure you perl path is correct. :) Good luck On Tue, 19 Sep 2000, lists at canonical.net wrote: > > Eve said she subbed here but the message never came through so I'm trying > it. . . > > Rachelle > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Evelyn Hawke" <evengstr@thepentagon.com> > To: <ringmgr@egroups.com> > Sent: Tuesday, September 19, 2000 5:04 AM > Subject: [rmg] Help!
