I was able to successfully install Radiant so you can disregard question  
8  
on my previous post about permissions. I just changed the permissions  
for  
some of the folders and it worked. Now that everything is installed and  
I  
picked my template choice, the directions say to edit the config file  
for my  
server. I am not sure what this means or what I need to do. In  
addition, I  
go to my website then /admin and nothing comes up. I have no admin  
folder  
on the backend. Am I missing something here?

I appreciate any help.

Matthew

I believe you are refering to the instructions to create  
config/database.yml? Basically you need to tell it the username,  
password, and database that you are using. There are several examples in  
the config directory.
