I am having trouble connecting to my server. I think that the problem is that I need to put a "~" in the address, and when I do, it isn't saved.

I host with bluehost.com, and right now, my webspace looks something like this: box91.bluehost.com/~myaddress. This is probably a shared server. When I enter in the above into the config settings and save, the "/" and "~" are removed and it looks like: box91.bluehost.commyaddress. Is it possible to use your software before I attach it to a myserver.com address?

Hi. Sorry for answering this late. The hostname should contain only the server name, in your case "box91.bluehost.com". The "/~myaddress" is not used when connecting to the database.

However, the URLs for the image directory and the server-side script (set in the "Network 3" and "images" tabs of the configuration window) should contain the "/~myaddress" part.


Regards,

Mario A. Valdez-Ramirez.
