Hi Michael

Great to hear that things are going better. Unfortunately you will now have to troubleshoot your system, and that may somewhat harder.

First it would seem the apache server is up and running since you get a 404 error. Are you familiar with the Apache server ? You want to find the file /etc/opt/apache and check out what it says in here. Expect to spend a little time finding out how it works. Try change the port number from :8000 to 80 etc. Check the server name. Try and put a regular html page into you web directory and try and see if the apache server will serve you this.

Other things that could be wrong :
Are postgresql running. You need to start it by doing /etc/rc.d/init.d/postgresql start.

I think you are pretty close to getting things up and running now. If you find out what your problem was you can ad the items to the draft of an installation guide I sent you.

Regards

Finn
