Forum OpenACS Q&A: OpenFTS troubles...

I am having problems initializing the OpenFTS engine. I installed OpenFTS according to the installation docs, following all the instructions with no problems (well, I did have to add --with-tcl=/usr/lib/ when configured it, as I read in this post--I'm running RH8). When I tried to initialize the OpenFTS engine (Main Site: OpenFTS Driver: Administration: Initialize OpenFTS Engine with the defaults) I first got an error similar (probably the very same one) to the one described in this post. I retried the initialization (for some reason) and got the following message:

As described in this message I changed the ownership of /usr/local/src/Search-OpenFTS-tcl-0.3.2 with chown. I got the same error. Then I tried copying the fts_*.tcl files in /usr/local/src/Search-OpenFTS-tcl-0.3.2 to /home/user/web/server/packages/openfts-driver/tcl/ as fts_*-procs.tcl. No luck. I'm still getting the same error. What am I doing wrong?
