Is there a seperate download of UBB Classic for Unix servers or is it just one software that works on both win/unix accept the different instructions for installation?

I have the instructions for install on unix but I cant seem to get it to work. I have contacted my hosting company about the maping of perl to see if the specs match what the software requires.

The zips in the members area work for both Unix and Windows servers. You need to select the zip which matches your path to perl. You can test that by using ubbclassic_test.cgi in the help directory of the zip file.

If you run into trouble, you can always fill out a support ticket

usr/bin/perl or usr/perl/bin are both standards (hence why there are options for them); your path will vary, the only things that can tell you the path that come with the ubb is the ubbclassic_test.cgi file.
