Installation

  1. Open the compressed archive you downloaded and copy everything to your cgi-bin directory.

  2. Create directories "db" for index files and "log" for query logs.

  3. Set permissions of script files and "db|log" dirs to world-readable world-executable (755 for script files and 777 for directories "db" and "log").

      Before you start, once again check main sources of errors in CGI scripts.

  1. First line of every script should begin with path to Perl in your server. Usually it is #!/usr/bin/perl. On Windows system you should write something like #!C:\PERL\5.00502\bin\MSWin32-x86-object\perl.exe, though simple #!perl should work.

  2. Unix-systems have different format of text files, than Windows. The difference is in "end of line" symbols. Therefore, you should convert your scripts in Unix format before uploading (it could be done in many text editors, like UltraEdit) or use ASCII mode in your FTP client during uploading.

  3. And check once again permission settings for all scripts (you can set them in almost all FTP clients, even if you have no access to shell). Please note that your provider may require settings for scripts permissions different from listed above.
