entries/archives directory error Sept 10, 2007 15:48:23 GMT -5

Hopefully this is an easy fix, but I'm new to greymatter. When I try to add a new entry I get this error:

"Can't read ../photoblog/archives/00000000.cgi. Please make sure that your entries/archives directory is correctly configured and is CHMODed to 777, or try running Diagnostics & Repair in the Configuration screen."

Even after I run Diagnostics & Repair, I get the same message. Does anyone know what's up? Also, is GM unnecessarily difficult to use or is it just me?

Thanks,
Bret

It could be just you

But seriously, the Greymatter development team is working on making GM more user friendly and easier to use. I was wondering what version of Greymatter are you using? I haven't seen that error since around 1.3.

If you don't want to upgrade, you can try looking at your gm-entrylist.cgi file and seeing if there is a line starting with '0|'. Also, you can post your gm-counters.cgi file data and we can look at them.

Feedback is useful, so if you have an area that you found difficult, let us know.
