[Openinteract-help] Ini file issue

[John S. <jo...@am...>]

Chris,

Oops - my intent was to use server.ini.  I didn't realize the files were
redundant.  I thought the latter was generated to validate the former,  but
obviously I didn't think about it too hard.

Anyway,  conf/base.conf points to the ini file that I've correctly (AFAIK)
set up.  But I'm still getting the "Fundamental part of OpenInteract
(themes) not functioning" error.

Is there a way to validate or troubleshoot the ini file or otherwise figure
out why the apache startup is carping?  Or do I want to look somewhere else?

JS
