Hi Mikel,
It's the latter. New server, fresh install, no existing files. After inspecting SV5FRI's script, I think I'm just going to copy the needed lines from his script manually one at a time. Once I have DXVars.pm downloaded I can manually edit it prior to resuming the remaining lines in the script.

Hello Tony,
I have recently made an installation using that script without problems.
Now I rechecked these files and found the extra ' you mentioned in
/spider/perl/DXVars.pm.issue file
As I have installed my own "touched" version at /spider/local of
DXVars.pm, I have had no problems when running it.
Could this be a solution, or your problem is before you can copy your
own DXVars.pm version?
73, Mikel
