Without showing us the code and the template you are using it is difficult to
figure out where the error actually is.  But I can explain what that error
message is telling you.

You have asked HTML::Template to fill in a value in the template called 'path'.
 But there is no coresponding value in the template called 'path', hence it is
complaining.  You need to add a <TMPL_VAR NAME="path"> in your template file
somewhere.  Or you need to remove the path parameter from your code (you must
have a call to $template->param(path => 'some value') in your code somewhere
that is adding the 'path' parameter to the template).

I hope that gets you on track.  If not, return here and post the code you have
and we will go from there.

Cheers,

Cees
