[Dxspider-support] DXSpider installation error

[Tony K1AX]

Hi all,

I'm using SV5FRI's excellent DXSpider Installation Script, which I've been using for years, for a fresh install of DXSpider on a new server. However, due to a  syntax error in line 51 of DXVars.pm, the compilation and script abruptly aborts.

Specifically, line 51 in DXVars.pm has an extra single quote in a variable assignment which causes the compilation and SV5FRI's script to abort prior to completion.  Anyone know of a workaround while we await another update?  I'd like to complete the installation today, if possible.

Line 51 in DXVars.pm in latest release:
$Internet::contest_host = '"contest.dxtron.com";

Should be:
$Internet::contest_host = "contest.dxtron.com";

73,

Tony K1AX
