Hello Dave,

I installed 5.1 (from CVS) and installed and mounted File-Storage (and oacs-dav) ... I created a directory "web" in file-storage and when trying to access http://myhost:myport/dav/web I get this error in the OpenACS error log (see below)... that's because the parameters in the standard config file recommend the /web/${server}/... standard while the documentation for OpenACS recommends to install in /var/lib/aolserver/${server}...

Sorry for the long error log ... that's just for the record, if someone else finds the same error ...
