Dear all 

With quite a struggle (being a complete novice at php) I got
pmapper-3.1.beta4 working more or less as I wanted, but in the last round of
modifications I obviously introduced a fatal error because from then on it
refused to start....well to be precise the framework appears but none of the
controls or map area. Anyway after many hours of trying to figure out the
problem I decided to start again and downloaded pmapper-4.0.beta2. After
quite a few more hours I have this running to a point where it produces the
frame but with errors on the page and with some but not all controls, eg the
TOC/legend and scale bar are missing but the reference map is present.
Forcing a frame change initiates what looks like a complete demo map to be
displayed, but the loading bar hangs for ever. 

I have been through the Quick Install Instructions for pmapper 4.x many
times but can't find cause of the problem. One particular frustration is
that despite countless attempts I cannot find any php error log to begin to
diagnose this situation. I am running under ms4W/Apache and WinXP. I have
tried every possible permutation for error logging in php.ini, the settings
that seem relevant currently being: 
error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE 
log_errors = On 
display_errors = Off 
error_log = "/tmp/phplog/php_errors.log" 

I have tried many different path and file variations for error_log, but
settled on the above because I thought I may have a permissions problem and
I can see that session.save_path = "/tmp" definitely does cause a session to
be written by php everytime I try to run the pmapperv4 demo. 

I must have read the php manual 50 times, but I can't figure out why I never
can find any php error log, and I don't know what to do next. Can anyone
help before I really do go insane? 

One other question which may be relevant: in the pmapper 4.0.beta2 download
there does not appear to be a config.ini file (not in the config directory
or anywhere else). This is a crucial file in pmapperv3, is it not used in
v4? 

Any suggestions gratefully received 

Chris
