Hi Raymond, Just a few comments, I just took a quick look at Webgui and have no experience with it, but... WebGui is not a package debian stable has, first red flag. (I know you run RH, but if it's not in Debian it probably isn't in RH). Second red-flag: this Runtime Environment that the makers of WebGui advertise looks odd. It's a 60MB download that claims to have Apache/Mysql/ImageMagick/Perl/others all bundled up into one neat package. This is a very unusual way to package/distribute for linux systems. In my opinion, it sounds like a "Bad Thing". Apache & MySql are rather big complex packages that is best to go along with what your distro delivers and not divert from. Installation in source(stable version) is real brief, and refers you to http://www.plainblack.com/installation for the install doc. None is found here. It mentions public list for install support but I couldn't find it. (That would make sense to join/ask install questions on the projects site list...) What was your experience with this "Runtime Environment" install package? If it installs these packages hopefully it isolates them in some private directories(usr/local)? Is that what it did? If not you could have a real mess on your hands, if it mixes it with the base install dirs. I would think that a 2nd copy of Apache/MySql would clash with the distro's copy. What version did you try and install? So a number of red flags, maybe you should forget all about this software. If you must have it I'd recommend trying to install per the short install.txt file. Try to install all prerequisites from your distro, leaving to last resort installing by source/cpan. So try and find RH packages for the numerous perl modules it uses. Note MySQL usually involves some pain trying to initiate a database. Cheers, Karl.
