Locked Out

[kthomas]

Boy am I in a pickle. I'm totally locked out of every manila site and 
I've got about 20 stories to get on line.

On friday I moved three manila sites to their own database, they were 
originally in ManilaWebsites.root. I simply wanted them to be "on their 
own" to make it easier to back them up.

I followed the procedure here...  
http://frontier.userland.com/stories/storyReader$4599
  it seemed to work but I didn't realize at the time that none of our 
editors could access any sites. Including me who setup and is managing 
editor for every site on our server. Old sites that I didn't touch, I 
have no access.

All I can access is the control panel. (fyi - we are using group 
membership.) i turned this off, then on and it didn't help.

I've noticed that the create a site does not display the "make a site" 
form. http://newshound.de.siu.edu
and instead gives the message "this isn't a Manila hosting site."

I found this... http://frontier.userland.com/discuss/msgReader$10377
but everything looks good (to me) at config.manila.hosting. oddly 
enough, the quickscript does not work and returns an error that it 
can't find manilaWebsites.root, which is open.

I can view all the members in createASite so they were not lost, just 
some link.

This info seems relevant...
