http://www.japsupercars.co.uk/cgi-bin/classifieds/classifieds.cgi

is this where these images should be when -
$url_to_templates = "http://www.japsupercars.co.uk/classified_images";
is defined
http://www.japsupercars.co.uk/classified_images/tree.gif

Yes, that variables would seem to be correct.

A 500 error can be many different things. What does your server log say?

my host. thanks for the reply, hope i can get this sorted quickly

i would like to customise classad. from http://www.japsupercars.co.uk/cgi-bin/classifieds/classifieds.cgi to http://www.japsupercars.co.uk/index.php

I use dreamweaver with a template that updates all pages as i work on it. would i need to customise each page of classads/templates or just some.

any advise before i start would be great

Well, it depends on how much you can do by using the header and footer templates. If you can fit most of your design in there, then you may not have to edit every template.

Oh and by the way, my pet is kickin your pets butt, you should go to the arena and fight back. :D

sorted loads tonight,.. er this morning.

but why the funny picture wen uploaded, like they are in complete? :confused:

hope u can help

Im getting a 404 (file not found) error when I try to view your classifieds?

(BTW, it is your turn in the fight, if we dont hurry and finish this battle our pets will starve to death).

http://www.japsupercars.co.uk/classifieds/classifieds.cgi?List_Items&Used%20Cars%20For%20Sale this is where i am at the mo. i am also wondering why the pictures upload funny. i am getting errors everywhere wen put debug in there :(

I dont understand what the problem is?

i have put the debug code in ,please register and logon

What debug code did you put in? Whatever it is, is causing cookie errors.

# comment this BEGIN block out on production code for security
BEGIN {
$|=1;
print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
use CGI::Carp('fatalsToBrowser');
}
# end of debug code

log in as admin password twinturbo, i have taken the code out now

browse the cars, without my debug it still throws up errors

Hi done that, great help, but then this when browse under admin and it is under the posted by link

Pha[Tue May 18 21:24:17 2004] classifieds.cgi: Issuing rollback() for database handle being DESTROY'd without explicit disconnect() at /home/sites/site34/web/classifieds/classifieds.cgi line 1410. [Tue May 18 21:24:17 2004] classifieds.cgi: Issuing rollback() for database handle being DESTROY'd without explicit disconnect() at /home/sites/site34/web/classifieds/classifieds.cgi line 1412. tsyd (0/0)

any idea?

Comment out this line in classads.cgi (right at the beginning):

use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser);

if i do, i get an internal server error


so i put my debug code again to see

this is what it looks like
#!/usr/bin/perl

use CGI qw/:standard/;
require 'cookie.pl';

# comment this BEGIN block out on production code for security
BEGIN {
$|=1;
print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
use CGI::Carp('fatalsToBrowser');
}
# end of debug code

### Your path to Sendmail
$sendmail = "/usr/sbin/sendmail";

Take out the debugging code and change the sub from before from this:

sub dbdisconnect {
#$dhb->disconnect() or oops("$! $@");
return 1;
}

To this:

sub dbdisconnect {
$_[0]->disconnect() or oops("$! $@");
return 1;
}

i have taken the debug out, and this is what sql.pl looks like, but logon as admin and go 'browse' sell' and login , I get sql errors

return $results;
}

### Connect to db
sub dbconnect {
my $db = DBI->connect("DBI:$dbtype:database=$dbname:host=$dbhost", $dbusername, $dbpassword) or &oops("$! DBI: $DBI::errstr");
return $db;
}

sub dbdisconnect {
$_[0]->disconnect() or oops("$! $@");
return 1;
}

1;

Add this right after yoru path to Perl:

BEGIN {
$SIG{__WARN__} = sub { $warn_error++; }
}


And change the sub dbdisconnect to:


sub dbdisconnect {
#$_[0]->disconnect() or oops("$! $@");
return 1;
}

looks lokie its working now, thanks alot :D
