At last we managed to get things back into working order. One thing however remains a mystery from a a newbie point of view. One would expect a new release to offer an upgraded toolkit. In the OACS world a new release seems to result into no active modules. I don't understand why this is called OACS 5.3.1 final if there is no functionality to download. All I now have is dotlrn, forum and lars blogger. Why don't you ship logger. project manager, photodb, fileshare and all the other stable modules ?

Thanks
Ben

I and maybe some more users of the forum are quite curious, what the source of the strange problem was. How did you fix this problem? This might be helpful in situations somebody else runs into the same situation.

Because there is no maintainer who is saying that the package works in OpenACS 5.3.1. We want to make sure to ship only modules which we know are working.

Additionally, with the many changes with regards to design, project manager does not work on 5.3.1 as it needs some cleanup. I never heard of photodb (or do you mean photo-album) or fileshare for that matter.
