Cannot open ID file guest_id.txt in D:\wwwroot\www.mysitesfolder.com\guestbook\ for writing!

This error must mean one of 2 things - either the path's wrong or the files aren't writable. I gave the files write permissions, and played around with the base URL, but I can't seem to get it right. WinNT's a bit finnicky about system paths, so i'm guessing that's the cause of the problem, but i've tried forward slashes, backslashes and double-slashes and none of these work - I definitely have the folder path right.

Anyone got any suggestions that might help me out?

Thanks.]]> https://proxy2.de/forum/posts/preList/1044/2686.php https://proxy2.de/forum/posts/preList/1044/2686.php GMT ]]> https://proxy2.de/forum/posts/preList/1044/4889.php https://proxy2.de/forum/posts/preList/1044/4889.php GMT
one thing I know is that you must set the folder permissions to Read, Write, Execute

this is the windows equiv of chmod 777

also the path must be absolute.

if all that is correct, then the script may have to be modified to run on windows

bottom line is that Windows NT server sucks]]> https://proxy2.de/forum/posts/preList/1044/4891.php https://proxy2.de/forum/posts/preList/1044/4891.php GMT [/quote]

Try changing the permissions folder where you have addentry.html, guest_id.txt, page_id.txt, guestbook.html and template.html in Windows Server with right click mouse then go to security, here select all users permissions and let Read_and_execute, Read and Write, and where you have your guestbook.pl (/cgi-bin folder) change permission to Read and thenin Application Settings enable execute permissions with secuences commands a executables.

Sorry, i don´t have a good english, i speak spanish.
