[ic] Help required for stupid error

 On Behalf Of James P. Kinney III

In the products directory of the catalog home, edit the variable.txt
file. Then remove the variable.sql or variable.gdbm file. When
Interchange is restarted, it will rebuild the database faile for
variable from the .txt file.

This is what I've done on this so far, deleted the variable.gdbm, edited
the variable.txt file so that the SERVER_NAME variable is acforsale.com,
asked my hosting company to do a manual reconfiguration as per docs at
url http://www.icdevgroup.org/i/dev/docfly.html?mv_arg=icadvanced04%2e03
(I'm still waiting on this or some response from them)

I can get to the IC login screen but as soon as I enter the password etc
I get the "cannot find page error" and I'm being redirected to
http://http://shop.acforsale.com/~acforsal/cgi-bin/cart.cgi/process.html
? (using an editor I can even get to the Administration menu page by
changing the url to go to from the login screen but then all links still
have double http:// on them).

If I try to access the store with http://shop.acforsale.com I can get
into the starting page (index) of the shop but all links on that page
revert back to the http://http://shop.acforsale.com... thing as well. 

Does anyone know if the server_name variable appears or is copied to
some other area that I may be able to modify.

Thanks in advance
