Re: [Bobs-devel] Help please

Maybe your php dba support for db3 isn't enabled? Try this: create a 
file in your html directory called info.php. Put this one line in it:
    <?PHP phpinfo()?>
Open it in your web browser and you should see all sorts of information 
about your php installation. Search the page for 'dba'.  My version 
4.2.2 of php shows this:
DBA support enabled
Supported handlers gdbm db3
