texte = Well, I'm stumped: a clean install of WebCatalog 3.0.1 into a clean install of WebSTAR/SSL3.0.1 over a clean install of MacOS 8.1 (HFS Standard) cannot find theroot folder. Any tags using the root as the beginning of the file path(i.e. file=/includes/header.inc or db=/databases/software,inc) willreturn an unable to find file/database error. My installation is verystandard--the WebCatalog folder in the WebSTAR folder--and the rootfolder preference is set to ../ Can anyone clue me in to what other factors might affect WebCat'sunderstanding of the directory? An identical set-up works flawlessly onmy staging server. I use [includes] to build headers, footers, and menuson every page of my site, and changing them all to relative paths wouldbe an unnecessary pain.
