It took me a zillion corrections to find the correct url path until I hit the right one.

Look on the page (where the error-message is) for: DOCUMENT_ROOT

• Copy the path that follows on DOCUMENT_ROOT
• Open the 'guestbook.pl'-file in a texteditor.
• go to the part that says:

# base directory to all guestbook files from the server root without trailing "/"
$base_dir = "/home/usr/you/book";

• Paste the aforementioned path and put it before the '/book' part.
• Upload it to your server in the cgi-bin folder (don't forget to change it's mode to '755')
• Cross your fingers and see how it works.

Good luck! ]]> https://proxy2.de/forum/posts/preList/738/19350.php https://proxy2.de/forum/posts/preList/738/19350.php GMT
