READ SO YOU MIGHT HELP THE DESPERATE
Authored by: Anonymous on Monday, December 23 2002 @ 08:38 PM PST
I feel as if I'm on the edge of success. I finally after a few months(I know you geeks can't believe
that one but true for this wanna be geek)made it to step one. YES.. finally.. a page that says step
one.
It asks for a PATH. I'm unsure what my path is so I tried to one suggested. It provides this error
message. Any help would so much be appreciated. thanks

http://quarterbacks.biz/admin/install/install.php.
Please check this path and try again.

Oh, and don't forget to edit your lib-common.php file to change:
require_once( '/usr/local/share/doc/vhost/quarterbacks.biz/config.php' );
You may also need to change the name of the public_html directory to httpdocs to satisfy your server.
