******    message to minivend-users from "S. Salter" <ssalter@tisbook.com>     ******

Hi,

New to minivend and to the list. Gone through the faq and docs (to a point)
but cannot get the /simple demo running.

doc root is /usr/local/www/htdocs
cgi root directory is /usr/local/www/htdocs/tools
minivend dist in /usr/local/www/htdocs/tools/mvend
installed it to /usr/local/www/htdocs/tools/vend

I did the manual perl tlink thing to get that working.

httpd.conf is in /usr/local/www/conf
server name is www.tisbook.com
DemoType is simple
mailOrderTo is tisbook
CatRoot is /usr/local/www/htdocs/catalogs/simple
CgiRoot is /usr/local/www/htdocs/tools  (tools dir allows cgi executables)
CgiUrl is /tools/simple.cgi  (ASSUMEing I want a cgi program name?)
Aliases is /simple
DocumentRoot is /usr/local/www/htdocs
SampleHtml is /usr/local/www/htdocs/simple
ImageDir is /usr/local/www/htdocs/simple/images
ImageUrl is /simple/images
using UNIX mode with no cgiwrap or suexec
using MySql and the database IS created

after process is done I get this URL to test things:
  http://www.tisbook.com/simple

but, the "Enter" link on that page is defined as:
http://www.tisbook/com/tools/simple/index.html

that doesn't exist.
What didn't I define properly?

thanks,
Steve
