Hello Tom -

I will need to see a copy of your Radiator configuration file  
together with a trace 4 debug from Radiator showing what is happening.

I will also need to know what version of Perl you are running.

The latest version is Radiator-3.13 and in general you will need to  
install Perl, Digest-MD5, Digest-MD4 and for your database DBI and  
the corresponding DBD module.

The procedure for installing any Perl module is

	cd /your/source/dirctory

	perl Makefile.PL

	make

	make test

	make install

regards

Hugh

radiator)?
Have you had a quick look on Google (www.google.com)?
Have you included a copy of your configuration file (no secrets),
together with a trace 4 debug showing what is happening?
