done all that. In fact the old hosts file is still there in etc from first install years
ago.
What other data can I provide. I've run out of ideas - short of the next bit, getting
down into the workings of the system. Which I have avoided up till now, because of the
seeming simplicity of something that did work, and since the upgrade, now doesn't.
As for repeating the question - I am getting answers to things I'm not asking ???? fairly
normal for mailing lists.

This is the next step, which I will begin on tomorrow. Along with anything else I can
trace. It seems I'm on my own with this one.
PHP3 is an EXCELLENT package,and so is pgsql, and Apache for that matter, and I have a
b'huge database that I would like to get back up and running, not to mention a new one I
need for the bookshop! So it looks like I will have to get down into the engine to get
this baby running.

Meantime, if anyone comes up with a shorter, and less dramatic solution....
