Forum .LRN Q&A: .LRN Installation -- stuck at the finish line

I installed OpenACS/.LRN bundle from CVS using the following commands:
****
cd /var/lib/aolserver4
cvs -d :pserver:mailto:anonymous@cvs.openacs.org:/cvsroot checkout -r oacs-5-4 acs-core
mv openacs-4 dotlrn
cd dotlrn/packages
cvs -d :pserver:mailto:anonymous@cvs.openacs.org:/cvsroot checkout -r oacs-5-4 dotlrn-all
mv dotlrn/install.xml ..
****

My environment is Ubuntu Dapper Server with all prerequisite packages installed, including:
PostgreSQL-8.1
AolServer-4.0.10
OpenACS-5.4 (for .LRN retrieved via CVS)

I edited "exec" command in /var/lib/aolserver4/daemontools/run to:
exec /usr/lib/aolserver4/bin/nsd -it /var/www/service0/etc/config.tcl -u service0 -g web

Under "service0" user, I then execute:
/var/lib/aolserver4/daemontools/run

My log file shows everything loaded and working, with aolserver4 listening on 192.168.16.33:8000

I get the following error message when I enter 192.168.16.33:8000 in my browser:
*****

I believe I must be missing a symlink somewhere, but I've run out of ideas trying to find the problem.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Thanks... Jim

Please disregard my prior post. I've made progress.

Now when I key in http://myserver:8000 I get the Aolserver Welcome page. I'm now trying to figure out why I'm not getting the OpenACS Installation: Welcome page.

Regards... Jim
