I think I have the Journal installed correctly, but when I tried signing on for the first time....after I put in my username and password and clicked the button, I got a page not found error. What page is the script looking for?
If the problem is in my config file....

# Configuration Section for OpenJournal v2
# ----------------------------------------------------

# Path to your Web site's main HTML directory (where the oj subdirectory is;
# no trailing slash). This is also known to some people as their FTP directory.

$mydir = "/usr/local/etc/httpd/vhosts/www.tedwatkin.com";

# Complete path to your cgi-bin directory (no trailing slash). This is similar
# to what you put above, except it's to your site's program or cgi-bin directory.

$progdir = "/usr/local/etc/httpd/vhosts/www.tedwatkin.com/cgi-bin/oj/";

# Name of the OpenJournal directory (oj is default; no trailing slash). If you
# want OJ to manage your main homepage, put nothing between the quotes (like "")
# and edit the index file in the ojtemplates subdirectory to look like your
# homepage (keep the OJ HTML comments in the template file, though!).

$ojdir = "/usr/local/etc/httpd/vhosts/www.tedwatkin.com/oj";

# Web path to OpenJournal program (how you access your site's cgi-bin directory
# from your Web browser).

$cgi_url = "/www.tedwatkin.com/cgi-bin/oj/oj.cgi";

# Name of your Web server (no trailing slash):

$baseurl = "http://www.tedwatkin.com";

# Name of your OpenJournal:

$title = "my open journal";

# Name of subdirectory in the oj directory where archives of old articles
# and indexes are kept (story is default):

$mesgdir = "story";

# Default extension of file names (htm is default):

$ext = "htm";

# Default name of your index file (index is default):

$mesgfile = "index." . $ext;

# Will this OpenJournal be used by more than one person contributing to
# the same journal? Multiple users are supported per journal.
# 1 = Multiuser on, 0 = Multiuser off (default)

$multiuser = 0; # 1 = On, 0 = Off

Also, is oj.cfg, auth.pl, and oj.pl supposed to be 755 and basically everything else 777?
Thanks,

I think this line in the config file:

$cgi_url = "/www.tedwatkin.com/cgi-bin/oj/oj.cgi";

should be:

$cgi_url = "/cgi-bin/oj/oj.cgi";

Hi John,
I made the change and got the same 404 error. As things stand now, I type in the URL for the script and the username/password page comes up. I type in a username and password, hit the Add button and get the 404 error.

Thanks.

If you post or email me privately the OJ URL (I tried guessing it from your config file, but couldn't find it on your server), I'd be happy to tell you exactly what the problem is...

It takes me a while sometimes....I had the oj. cgi file named oj.pl.......
I can post to the journal now.

I am getting other errors now, but will take a while to document.

Thanks,
