After running the setup.cgi and adding the paths I get the following error trying to proceed;
unable to write to config.cfg - please ensure that config.cfg situated in your cgi-bin directory is set to permission setting of 777.
This is a Windows 2000 machine. The cgi-bin is located in the \inetpub\cgi-bin directory with read-write and execute permissions. All the cgi files have been modified with the appropriate path to the .cfg file.
I cannot see why the file cannot be accessed. The file path in the cgi and the pm files are entered as : "c:\inetpub\cgi-bin\fsearch"
This makes no sense.
We are trying to evaluate this and we can't get past this problem.
Thanks

The path in the scripts should look like this:
c:/inetpub/cgi-bin/fsearch/config.cfg

They are as specified and the file is in the right location. The cgi-bin has read-write & execute permissions....
Problem found...You can't wrap the file path in double quotes:
"c:\inetpub\cgi-bin\fsearch" - this fails
'c:\inetpub\cgi-bin\fsearch' - this works
You need to verify this and change your docs. Your docs specify "path".
That solves Config Path 1 & 2.
Now I can't get the URL paths to work http://srevername.
Error: Does not exist. - Connection failed when trying to connect to http daemon at /
This is an Intranet not a WWW..com. Could that be an issue?

The quotes " are definately correct and not a programming mistake.
You need to get the path to look like this:
$cfile = "c:/inetpub/cgi-bin/fsearch/config.cfg";
Note that config.cgf is included in the path.
