Forum OpenACS Q&A: Response to XML support for OpenNSD is problematic

Hello!
Thanks for the help!
Answering Don's first message, I waited for 15 minutes (really), and nothing happened! And it is not that the installation "hangs", it stops. The "next" button that should appear never appears! And you may be right, maybe the XML module isn't the problem; in the log file, I tracked the problem down to /web/openacs4/packages/acs-kernel/sql/postgresql/acs-install.sql,that have trouble with a function, named acs__magic_object_id. The error in the log file is this:
[30/Dec/2001:17:18:58][27407.14341][-conn10-] Error: Error sourcing /web/openacs4/packages/acs-bootstrap-

acs-install.sql is invoked from whithin /web/openacs4/packages/acs-bootstrap/installer/packeges-install.tcl.
Is this getting ugly or what?
Thanks for your help! (I think I really need it now!)
