Re: [ic] Question regarding Installation and other Issues...

[suppressed]

What database server are you using?. When you run the script, everything starts 
properly, or you get a message?. I got the message saying that the server is 
busy too. I think it is related to a database problem. I suggest you to install 
the perl modules from the rpms that you can get from the interchange site. 
Then, install the rpms. I have Red Hat 9, but I have not installed interchange 
in my computer. I will try to do that tomorrow, and let you know what's going 
on.

Diego
