Your problem:
cgi-bin is a sub-directory of htdocs (and that is not a good idea)

Soluten:
Step 1
Code:

# The Path to a 'NON-WEBACCESSABLE' directory of your system
# Maybe you have to chmode it if you use your own setting

  $config{'get_path'}		  = 0; # Set this from 1 to 0 if you want to use your own setting  
  $config{'basepath'}		  = '/abyss/htdocs/cgi-bin/eAuction_161';

but I think you are running a win system so you have to set the full path.
For example:
$config{'basepath'} = 'c:/Program Files/abyss/htdocs/cgi-bin/eAuction_161';
or
$config{'basepath'} = 'c:/Program Files/Abyss Web Server/htdocs/cgi-bin/eAuction_161';

Step 2
- Search eAuction.pl for sub get_path
- search sub get_path for the line
$config{'basepath'} .= $config{'auction_dir'};
and set # as the first char of this line.
#$config{'basepath'} .= $config{'auction_dir'};

Hmmm,

I tried everything you suggested and it still give me:

Error

No such file or directory

YOUR SET UP IS NOT CORRECT

Click
InterWer Script-Forums
if you need support

Is there a directory structure that is required by eAuction?

Example of mine:

Cgi-bin
==>eauction_161
====>all my eauction scripts

htdocs
==>eauction161
====>contains my index.html file that calls my script

When I let the program set my basepath for me, it puts the folders and files in the CGI-BIN directory with the rest of the scripts...but when I try to set my own, nothing works.

I use this to call the script:


any ideas?
