Douglas, 

Under your Frontier Window menu do you see the following open databases:

manilaWebsites.root
mainResponder.root
config.root
discuss.root
members.root
manila.root
prefs.root
resources.root

These should all be open at startup - if they are not open, launch them.

Have a look in your  www folder in the Guest Databases folder (in your
Frontier folder of course) - do you see a database called
manilaWebsites.root?

If you can access the control panel that suggests that the server is working
ok - but that the database containing the Websites is not being found.

All the best,
Jim
