I did what tammy recommended doing. I looked at that guide and started from scratch.. I have the option to do this because of it being a first run at getting OpenACS running.
Its a great guide but there are some things that are not correct. Well for my system that is. Not sure what version it is at but there were a few buggy things. Like calling for files that was not included in the package. But all and all was a good and very helpful.
