BT Host config settings

[dmz1966]

Hi,
having a nightmare trying to set up my connection between Actinic and my host.

The host is BT Broadband, does anybody have or know the config settings needed to get our shop moving

Main errors are server name cannot be resolved, CGI bin url is incorrect, path to perl shell

I have tried to get confirmation from BT but to no avail (I only get an email with 100 links to thier help pages which tell us nowt )

HELP ME PLEASE
Thanks in advance DMZ1966

You should read this thread:

Unless BT have sorted out the permissions issues then it sounds like there's no chance of it working.

I'm currently with 4sure hosting and I have to say that they've always been very helpful whenever I've had any problems, which is very rare. They have a full set of network setup files for download for all versions of Actinic which is a great help for any newbie like myself ! They do Actinic hosting plans which can help anyone put together an Actinic site without too much trouble. Hope this helps.

Just trying to put my website theme into actinic dev. Any good areas for me to learn or get tutorials?

All a bit scary at the minute.

http://www.actinic.co.uk/support/downloads.htm has design and advanced user guides (AUG) which covers many things that developers and designers of sites might need to know.

The AUG is updated with new stuff as and when Actinic deem something of use has come to light (mostly from this forum), so it is a continnual work in progress and a great resource.

Hi there.

In regards to design, we do a couple of guides. Try Designing with Actinic and the Advanced User Guide for size.
