First thanks for help
I was checking step by step what you told me and these are the result:
1. I ran ./construct and i got *nothing*
2. I ran ./construct test=1 and i got this:
Status: 404 Not Found
Content-Type: text/plain

For this i think is not a cgi problem.
After that i tried with makecat without any database created before and
makecat created the database well, but without the tables, empty, after that
i browse the catalog by the admin interface wich it's working well but if i
browse the catalog by the customer side return the message error i'told you
before.
If you have any other idea, no doubt in communicating to me it
Thanks again...
