It sounds to me like something went wrong with your installation.Another thing you can do is re-boot. Maybe that will clear things out.

txmedic03 Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 That depends on if you are using CGI PHP or not, but the question is has it ever worked and have you made any recent changes.
