I get the following warning message when installing eblah together with an invitation to post it here for much needed help in working out what correct pathnames should be and exactly where in Settings.pl to edit in the correct names.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

WARNING!
Your forum may not work properly if you continue. Setup recommends editing the path to directories in Settings.pl and then refreshing this page until this message disappears. There was a problem verifying that the following directories exist:

Avatars Currently set to: /websites/symlinks/blahdocs/Avatars
uploads Currently set to: /websites/symlinks/blahdocs/uploads
template Currently set to: /websites/symlinks/blahdocs/template
The following may help you figure out what your paths are:
Document Root: /websites/symlinks
Script name: /websites/LinuxPackage04/ro/ge/rk/rogerkeeling.f2s.com/cgi-bin/forum/Setup.pl
Please note that not all server report the above information correctly.

Read this thread, it should tell you your true documentroot

To Martin. Thanks but I don't understand what you mean - I am reading this thread but still confused.

In Settings.pl, change $blahdocs2 to "/websites/LinuxPackage04/ro/ge/rk/rogerkeeling.f2s.com/blahdocs" ... you MAY have /htdocs or something before /blahdocs.  Your FTP program should show you a folder like /www or something, if it does, add that before /blahdocs.

Many thanks. in setting.pl, line 1, I changed

        $bdocsdir2 = "$ENV{'DOCUMENT_ROOT'}/blahdocs"
to     $bdocsdir2 = "/websites/LinuxPackage04/ro/ge/rk/rogerkeeling.f2s.com/public_html/blahdocs"

and setup ran OK

(I had to key the amendments on my PC & transfer by FTP  to the wesite. I also took more than one attempt and had to 'delete browsing history' from my internet connection before the  amendments took effect)
