Hello Lutz,



Well im trying to run the blog running under apache,need to try that  ;-)



BUT configuring it all seems to be a problem where im unable to configure

"users" and "page" via the index.cgi page.. I dont see any errors popping up

but it simple does not work... Strange ..the rest is oke...Has it something to do

with the domain inside the setup? config.cgi ?



Regards,

Norman.

You have to do th 'setup' page first! If that page is not done right you cannot do 'users' and 'page'.



Go into config.cgi with an editor and make sure you have: (set 'pending "yes")



Let me explain the config variables in the case of the http://nuevatec.com/blog website:



When you go into setup it says over the first entry field:



 Configured for:  http://nuevatec.com/blog



The 'domain' field says: nuevatec.com

The 'path' field says: blog



If these two fields are not right any intent to do changes in 'users' or 'page' will fail, becaus those two fields are used to set cookies in your browser.



After the setuop page is done correctly the porgram will do: (set 'pending "no")  in the config.cgi file and let you make changes to 'users' and 'page'



It is also important that you do setup pages using the same URL. I.e: lets say your site is www.norman.com/blog  but www.newdep.org goes to the same place. If you have configured your blog using www.norman.com/blog you can read and comment using www.newdep.org/blog but you would not be able to do changes of 'setup' 'users' or 'page'.
