Permissions problem?  For a test, try this on a throw-away catalog directory
tree:

	chmod o+rwx -R *

And also see the attached thread for potential enlightenment.  :-)

ehh..........sorry all !
Well, the problem with "Undefined Catalog: /cgi-bin/foundation" was due to
permission problems. When running makecat I specified server running as
"interch", store owned by user "tomas" and group was "interch".
When I added "interch" as primary group for user "tomas" instead off
supplementary, things went better.
No more complaints about missing MailOrderTo directive
However, when running /usr/sbin/interchange --serve as user "interch" it
complained about Perl modules
"Safe::Hole"
"SQL:Statement"
"LWP::Simple"
was missing. After digging around the mail archive I found a nifty command
which checked and updated ALOT of Perl stuff:
# perl -MCPAN -e 'install Bundle::Interchange'


This installed all needed modules (among others) and I could login to the
admin area.
Wicked......
Thanks for all your efforts trying to help  (probably more to come along the
way)
cheers - Tomas
