PS Guestbook - Data Directories / File Paths

I have been using the above perl script on our club website for a few years without a problem.
Recently our hosting company have updated there systems and now coincidentally our guestbook doesn't work.
When I enter under my administrator I get the following message "The program could not create the required data directories.
/websites/123reg/symlinks/psjs_datalogs

The root path returned by your server is :

/websites/123reg/symlinks

The error returned by your server is :

Permission denied - No such file or directory

FTP into your server and create a directory called "psjs_datalogs" at root level (in the same folder your home page is in ).

Inside the psjs_datalogs folder create a folder called "psg1155548111".

Inside the psg1155548111 folder create a folder called "data".

CHMOD both of these folders to 777 and press the "Setup" button again.

WINDOWS users, you may need to have permissions set by your system administrator.

If the problem persists, try making use of the $DefaultData variable found in the _cfg.cgi file near line 58 or contact us for support.


All the above files do exist in the root directory of the website,nothing has been changed by us, anyone got any ideas what could be wrong? They used to work fine....

Have you made sure that you "CHMOD both of these folders to 777" and that your path to the script is correct.

One of my hosting company changed their paths and sometimes when they update they change all the file permissions
