Default CGI expert?

Hello Titus,

Sounds like you are on a unix system of some sort (right ?). I guess the program still can't see the file.

Try this code :

sub check_files{
$DATA_FILE="$DATA_PATH/$SURVEY_NAME\.srv";
$LOG_FILE="$DATA_PATH/$SURVEY_NAME\.log";
if ( !-e $DATA_FILE){
print "Content-type: text/html\n\n Data File is Missing!\n";
print $DATA_FILE;

use DirHandle;

$d = new DirHandle $DATA_PATH;
if (defined($d)) {
print "<BR>Good Data Path";
}
else {
print "<BR> Bad Data Path";
}
while (defined($_ = $d->read)) {
print $_ . "<br>";
}
exit;
}

if (!-e ....

This should tell you if you have a bad path or not. It should also tell you if you are looking at the right directory (i.e. it prints out the directory for you).

The good news is that I tried out your clubschedule code on my machine and it works fine.

Hope that helps.
