Re: Rebuild of Data Base

: It's as simple as locating the file to which you point your
: browser. Just like you locate any other *.html file which you
: update by FTP.
: The browser clearly displays the location in the address bar
: whenever you visite a page.

: Where this is exactly on your server depends on how the server is
: set up and how URLs are mapped to paths. But again, it's the
: same as any other file you handle via FTP. Starting somewhere in
: /public_html, /httpdocs, /www or whatever else is a good idea.

Unless there is a URL that goes to admin_config.pl, there is no way for me to point my broswer to it. The URL must already exist, but my ADMIN area only goes to http://domain - removed/A_d_M_i_N/index.pl I already looked in the A_d_M_i_N folder, but only the index.pl files is there. If I look manually, then I need to know what folder admin_config.pl is in, so I can find that folder. Your documentation says: /cgi-bin/bb...x/ but as I said, all cgi-bin folders are empty. I open various folders in all areas that would seem to pertain, but I'm not able to find admin_config.pl in any of them.

This is what you sent me when you set up the forum:

Entry scripts=============All admin entry scripts are in/public_html/marksesl/A_d_M_i_N Public entry scripts are in subfolders of/public_html/marksesl---> according to prior emails. Should be intuitive

But, I looked in marksesl/A_d_M_i_N and the only file there is the index.pl file.
