I am trying to test a new V7 site using fasthosts/linux. I already have one site running successfully after a few similar teething probs.

My problem is when at perl installation stage - I get errors that the path cannot be found/check the extension. I know the settings should be fine as I have checked against my working site. I also know the perl path and extension is correct for the server.

My settings are:

HTTPPROXYMODE 0
HTTPPROXYADDRESS
HTTPPROXYPORT 80

HTTPPROXYPASSWORD

Fixed it! I spoke to the ISP and they switched the scripts off then on again and it now works. I seem to remember this happening with my first site - could be a fasthosts anomaly? :confused:
