Your cgi path has a double slash. go into the control panel and take the slash off the end. That's step one .

If you have the Mod Log hack installed, take it off and see if it works.

Line 565 was a blank line in UBB 6.1.0.2 so since we have no idea what could be on line 565 in your UBB why not post that line for us?

Ok, now I'm smart enough. Give me the previous 5 lines and the next 5 lines.

For future references, this goes in "Installing and Upgrading" to v6. I guess. That would be the best forum. Maybe a General Assistance forum is needed...

God I hate the word "sleuth"... When I was a kid at my grandparents' cabin at the Lake of the Ozarks, it was full of old Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew books, and so when I was struck with boredom or for some odd reason not swimming/skiing, I would read them. And they used the word "sleuth" a bazillion times in every book, and it just bugged the crap out of me for some reason. I really don't know why, there's nothing particularly wrong with the word that I know of. It's just one of those odd unexplainable pet peeves, I guess.

I just thought you all should know that...
