This is my first time installing a script, I thought I'l just follow the instructions and Im done but didn't turn out that way, but I think I know where Im going wrong... At some point I have to edit this file with my domain which was easy and it also asks for the absolute path to my data directory $_data_path variable Enter the absolute path to your data directory. This is normally cgi-bin/arplus/data but can be anywhere on your server. NOTE: This is the absolute path from your host's server root, not from your domain's root. It would be normal for this path to contain your domain or login name in it. # EXAMPLE: /usr/home/loginname/usr/httpd/cgi-bin/arplus/data I dont quite understand what they are asking for the path from my hosts server root? Im using cpanel hosting can anyone help?
Type on your prompt. >pwd [enter] And you will get the location of the directory. Learn Unix basics and then Perl basics.
Wow. This is an old post. Anyway you'll have to provide the location from your host perspective. Therefore, /usr/home/loginname/usr/httpd/cgi-bin/arplus/data seems to be more accurate.
