Hello programming support, I don't know if I am posting to the right place, I have a problem about a safelist script that I installed on my cpanel. I would like help directing me how to set the path links correct so that it calls the correct pages and to get this to operate correctly, this is sopposed to be a simple mailer script with a join free section and an upgrade to pro. I will go into more detail when asked. Thank you Ken Gorenc
Always remember when you are asking for help or request something provide maximum details bcoz time is money.
Thank you HassanKhalid, I will try and explain in more detail, The script I installed is called PayPal Money Script, a safelist mailing script. The problem I am facing is when I did a test run and signed up as a free member, I entered my user name and password. The return page states that I did not enter a username. I am not the familiar with the way I am to enter the paths. And the pro mailer some other pages seem to be in a loop Here are the instructions and what is included within this script if this helps: ***** PayPal Money Making Script ***** If you are not familiar with SSI, installing perl scripts, you should not attempt this installation yourself. Files Included main.cgi----Unsubscribe,give lost password,change account info join.cgi----Join pro members to the list login.cgi----Check login info and redirect to members area mailer.cgi----Send pro members emails to the list freejoin.cgi----Join free members send.cgi----Send free members emails to the list. config.cgi----Holds some info you need to set. admin.cgi----Admin panel emails.txt----Holds emails of pro members freeemails.txt----Holds emails of free members login.txt----Holds login info of pro members freelogin.txt----Holds login info,emails,IP addresses of free members subscribers.txt----Holds full info about pro members temp.txt----Holds temp accounts of pro members freetemp.txt----Holds temp accounts of free members paypal.txt----Paypal payment module that you need to change error.txt----Holds info about errors, if they are happen safelist.shtml----Main page of Safelist form.html----Form for pro joining members.html----Members area for pro members numpro.cgi----Display current numbers of pro members numfree.cgi----Display current numbers of free members DIRECTORIES: templates----Holds templates you can design as you like it messages----Holds the letters that script send to a members images----Holds gif images data----Holds all data files ======================================================== After Unzipping there will be two directories and two files Directories: safelist images ------- Files: safelist.shtml form.html ------- The "images" directory will contain: Lifetime.gif x-click-but5.gif Inside the "safelist" directory are: admin.cgi config.cgi freejoin.cgi join.cgi login.cgi mailer.cgi main.cgi numfree.cgi numpro.cgi send.cgi error.txt admin.gif sadmin.gif Inside the "safelist" directory there are three others directories.Those are: messages templates data The "messages" directory will contain: activate_pro.txt confirm_free.txt welcome_pro.txt welcome_free.txt The "templates" directory will contain: activate.html can't_send_free.html can't_send_pro.html change.html command.html confirm.html confirm1.html error.html forget.html incorrect_link.html invalid_login.html lost_pass.html members.html not_found.html send_pass.html signup_free.html signup_pro.html user.html The "data" directory will contain: emails.txt freeemails.txt freelogin.txt login.txt subscribers.txt temp.txt tempfree.txt Set the path to perl at the top of each CGI file(except config.cgi). Usually it is #!/usr/bin/perl or #!/usr/local/bin/perl Open config.cgi and follow the instruction inside. Open the paypal.txt file. You are replace the email address with your registered PayPal email address. You are replace the YourDomain.com in the URLs with the correct URL to your domain. If you are charging more than $10.00 or less than $10.00 for your membership fee you will need to edit that also. Then copy all payment module and insert it into your main (.htm) page. Upload all the files as they are specified above in Ascii Mode except .gif files. All .gif files upload in Binary Mode Set the file permissions of all CGI files to CHMOD 755 for the TXT, .GIF and .HTML(S) files CHMOD 777. ***How to use Safelist Pro*** Link to the freejoin.cgi to let free members join. Link to the form.html to let pro members join Execute numpro.cgi and numfree.cgi from your SSI (.shtml) pages. Place the following code where you want to see the number of members: <!--#exec cgi="/cgi-bin/safelist/numpro.cgi"--> Display numbers of pro members <!--#exec cgi="/cgi-bin/safelist/numfree.cgi"--> Display numbers of free members e.g. <p><center>There are <!--#exec cgi="/cgi-bin/safelist/numpro.cgi"--> pro <br>and<!--#exec cgi="/cgibin/safelist/numfree.cgi"--> free members in your Safelist</center> You can change the safelist.shtml, members.html and form.html as you want, but if you change members.html do not change these tags <form method="post" action="mailer.cgi"> <form method="post" action="main.cgi"> This is nessasary for good work of the script. Also do not remove these tags of safelist.shtml: <input type="hidden" name="action" value="Join Us For Free"> For free join <input type="hidden" name="action" value="Login"> For Pro login Congratulations- You Now Own Your Own Safelist Business. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So that you can see what occurs when you sign up as a free member is: http://sweetsunrisemedia.com/safelist/safelist.shtml If someone could help figure this out so that the whole script works correctly please let me know.
