If not, I suggest not trying to change any path settings and follow the "Quick Install". http://www.phpslash.org/article.php3?story_id=32&topic_id=39§ion_id=8#ss2.2 As you noticed phplib is preinstalled in the current release. There is no other configuration of phplib required for phpSlash. The local4.inc, etc use php4 sessions. > Any help would be much appreciated.
