All,

Still struggling with installing 0.6 - I have followed the instructions  
and  
everything seems to be fine - however when I create a symbolic link  
after  
renaming public\_html to public\_html\_bak I get the an error saying the  
directory or file can’t be found??  
Here is the error from putty.

-bash-3.00$ ln -s ~/millimar/radiant-0.6.0/public/ ~/public\_html/  
ln: creating symbolic link `/home/millimar/public_html/' to`/home/millimar/millimar/radiant-0.6.0/public/’: No such file or  
directory

Any ideas?  
Keith

Right. Drop the trailing slash from public\_html. A link is a file,  
not a directory. Your command should look like:

$ ln -s ~/millimar/radiant-0.6.0/public/ ~/public\_html

Matt,

Thanks - got that working now. But (isn’t there always a but!) when I  
know  
got the site I get a blank screen - the same when I go to /admin?

Any ideas?
