Re: [mv] My images will not work.

******    message to minivend-users from Stellar Webmaster <www@hi-line.net>     ******

Here's the information from [the top of] my
/home/httpd/html/storm/catalogs/simple/catalog.cfg:

Variable    SERVER_NAME     anubis.hi-line.net
Variable    CGI_URL         /storm/cgi-bin/simple
Variable    SECURE_SERVER   http://anubis.hi-line.net
Variable    ORDERS_TO       storm
Variable    IMAGE_DIR       /simple/images
Variable    DOCROOT         /home/httpd/html/storm
Variable    SAMPLEHTML      /home/httpd/html/storm/simple
Variable    SAMPLEURL       http://anubis.hi-line.net/storm/simple

What this isn't telling me (perhaps for obvious reasons, or perhaps not),
is why it's looking for the images in the /home/httpd/html/simple directory
when the simple directory should be in /home/httpd/html/storm/simple.  The
error logs are correctly reporting that (for example)
/home/httpd/html/simple/images/items/21-22.jpg does not exist.  To the best
of my knowledge I'm giving proper paths for everything, since it *is*
showing all the rest of the data, though the questions asked by makecat are
somewhat cryptic and I may be entering the wrong information at some point.

(On another question, are the URLs at the bottom of the test page supposed
to look the way they do?  If you wonder what I mean, try
http://anubis.hi-line.net/storm/simple/index.html, and put your mouse over
"Home" at the bottom of the screen, and note the URL.)
