[WebDNA] A note about the WebDNA Server 8.0.2 installer and Admin on Ubuntu

It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 112219
interpreted = N
texte = When I tried using Admin to create my own list of domains to be served by WebDNA it failed with a writefile / permissions error. This has happened on several new VPS installs. My solution is to create my own blank/empty DomainList file, then put it into /usr/lib/cgi-bin/WebCatalogEngine, then set the permissions on this folder and the DomainList file to 777. This makes it possible for WebDNA to write to this file. Ideally the installer will be improved some day so that we won't run into this problem any more. One more note about Admin: Maybe someone can fix the spelling of "Orderfile Secrity" in the left-side nav menu before releasing the next installer? It's been misspelled like this for a long time!
