Gday Os!

Are you using the create_instance script to create your campsite
instance in the first place? My testing seemed to show that if you used
that, then the database_conf file would be created with a pointer to the
appropriately named database.

If you fancy trying an install from an RPM, please give my SRPM a go,
http://pye.dyndns.org/campsite/SRPMS/campsite-2.2.2-1.src.rpm.

wget http://pye.dyndns.org/campsite/SRPMS/campsite-2.2.2-1.src.rpm
rpm -i campsite-2.2.2-1.src.rpm
cd /usr/src/redhat/SPECS
rpmbuild -ba campsite.spec
rpm -i /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/campsite-2.2.2-1.i386.rpm

This of course is Campsite 2.2.2, but I did make some changes to the
installation process because I also experience some difficulties with
that version (see the patch file embedded in attached SRPM).

Would be very pleased to hear how you go, if you do get a chance. I'm
aiming to do an RPM for Campsite 2.3.0 shortly.

Course it's possible taht I didn't fix the problem you're seeing. I just
remember that I fiddled about with some of the related files in my
efforts to get the RPM installer working as intended.

Cheers

JP
