Anyone who's familiar with eZ pub will be able to tell me the problem. Check my manual installation at

http://Exponential.dallasray.com/index.php

Then click on any of the links. They're dead! The URL is malformed due to my incorrect directory structure configuration but I can't identify a fix. For instance, if I click on the "Sports" link in the left column it takes me to

http://Exponential.dallasray.com/index.php/news/content/view/full/45/

Thanks for any assistance you might provide.

Yeah, looks like something's wrong. I'm sure I've had this problem in the past, I think I tinkered with it for a while and then just went for the 'normal' install. It's probably something to do with your site.ini and settings/siteaccess/news/site.ini.append files :)

Check [SiteSettings] and [DatabaseSettings] for me I have:

[SiteSettings]
DefaultPage=/content/view/full/2
IndexPage=/content/view/full/44
ErrorHandler=displayerror
LoginPage=embedded
SiteName=News
SiteURL=192.168.0.1

[DatabaseSettings]
DatabaseImplementation=ezmysql
Server=localhost
Database=name_of_my_news_database
User=root
Password=my_database_password
Charset=iso-8859-1
Socket=disabled

Also enable virtual hosting (no idea how to do this in IIS) cos it helps simplify things :)
