Forum OpenACS Q&A: Templating is not working properly, ¿why?

Hi,

Following the OpenACS Core Documentation, I have installed AOLserver (using Malte Sussdorff's document "Install AOLserver 4") and OpenACS (using Vinod Kurup's document "Install OpenACS 5.0.4").

My installation seems to be OK, and AOLserver starts up without writing error messages. But when I request the page "http://localhost:8000/dotlrn" the browser receives a page with bad HTML code. After investigating on this error, I have found out that the ADP tags (<master>, <slave>, <if>, ...) of .adp files are being ignored (so, for instance, slaves and master templates appear sequentially in the resulting page). Also, variables between 'at' symbols are not superseeded by its values (and strings between sharps also have the same problem).

Below I've included the HTML code received from the server when I request "http://localhost:8000/dotlrn". Please, could somebody help me to solve these errors?

Thank you in advance,
M. A. Muñoz
