easysearch.cgi problems
Good morning to you too. 
Here's the error message I kept getting when I ran easysearch.cgi
---------
File Access Error
You have an error in your PATH configuration variables in the /cgi-bin/easysearch.cgi file.
Your server reports that your BASE path is : /export/hmv-user/icons/hypermart.net
Note that this is reported as your BASE path, not the FULL path to your files.
If you require help installing this script please consider purchasing the professional version of this script. Your purchase includes full tech support and installation.
Get it at : http://www.getperl.com/easysearch/
End of Results.
------------------end of error message
The base path I've used on other scripts is
/data1/hypermart.net/ and it has always worked, but not on easysearch.cgi. I've also tried using the base path suggested in the error but still get the same error. I've tried every possible thing I can think of but still....

Please help. I got this Easy Search script from getperl.com, listed in cgi.resourceindex.com. It looks pretty easy and straightforward to configure, but when running the script it keeps giving me error messages saying my base path configuration is incorrect, and suggesting I get the paid version that comes with installation. I've run over 30 scripts on my Hypermart site with no problems. This is the first one that gives me errors. I think some of you might have used this script, so please kindly offer some help. Thanks.

Never mind. I moved the script to my other site on another host and right away it worked. It just wouldn't work on Hypermart for some reason.

I had this problem also, now I always test my scripts on different servers Unix, Linux, CobaltRaq3.
I haven't been expose to NT servers due to many discouraging comments, maybe I am wrong but I heard that .asp .php files and database works very well on NT servers.
