pooda,

Could you give us some more information about the above error? What script are you trying to run? Does the error only occur when you try to perform a certain function?

Regards,

The script is Perlshop. The error happens when you try to enter the shop. If you would like to see the error first hand it is at http://www.grizzlygraffix.com/

Click on enter the disign shop and the error will be there to greet you. Please help I have been reading my heart out and have not been able to figure this one out.

I don't know the answer to your question but I noticed that all of the directories, including the cgi-bin, at your website are accessible by anybody. I would not be comfortable having the directories so wide open. You need to take steps to correct this situation. For example:
click here (http://www.grizzlygraffix.com/httpd/)
If nothing has changed since this post, your directory tree will display and all of your subdirectories are accessible.

Regards,
Kevin

How do you suggest I do that? What permission level do you have to put it at so that they can still see the web site but not the tree?

The easiest thing to do would be to upload an index.html file into each folder. You can put a brief message in the index.html file (like: "you don't have permission to access this directory" or just a blank page). Unless you are the server administrator I don't believe you can make the necessary settings yourself. Contact the system administrator and ask them about it.
