I sure hope you guys can help me,I'm contemplating suicide here.

Im trying to set up UBB on virtualavenue but im having problems with the absolute path to CGI.Support emailed me but when i enter the path in UBB i still get the same error message.
Do you have any idea as to what could be wrong or give me a few pointers.If anyone has a tutorial for hosting UBB on vitualavenue that would be much appreciated.

Thanks for your time.
