FFA Link List — FAQ

Frequently asked questions about installing and using FFA Link List.

How do I setup FFA Link List?

In ffalinklist.zip there is a file called ffal.cfg. Open it with a text editor and follow the installation instructions contained within the file.

I get Internal Error 500.

This is probably caused by a misconfiguration in ffalinklist.cfg, or you may have forgotten to change the path to Perl in ffal.cgi. Double-check both files and ensure all paths are correct for your server.

I use a Windows server. Can I use FFA Link List?

No. FFA Link List is made and tested for Unix/Linux servers only. It is not compatible with Windows-based hosting environments.

I get 404 File Not Found.

There is a misconfiguration in ffal.cfg. Check that the path to your CGI script and list files is correct.

Do I upload files in ASCII or BINARY?

All text files must be uploaded in ASCII mode. Uploading in binary mode will cause line-ending issues on Unix/Linux servers and the script will not function correctly.
