Hi People, I am trying to determine why Apache is giving an ERROR! Permission Denied message when there is no access restriction in the file system which a standard WIN98 FAT32 Partitioned drive running Windoze 2000 Pro. As far as I can tell there is no restriction in Apache httpd.conf file that would disallow access to the users/members directory or file. So can Dieter or someone who is more intimate with the Perl Code of SQL-Ledger tell me where in the code exactly does the admin.pl attempt to open the "members" file so I can check to see if the is something in the way the file is called or even using a linux based command that may not exist in Windoze 2000 pro. Anyone happy to assist would be welcome.
