Success! Here's the solution, which I happened to find in the archives. First, I replaced the older engine and database drivers (2.6 they were, I think) with the 2.9 engine and the database drivers (externals?), i.e., revdb.so and dbmysql. All are Linux since that's what my webhost's server

Things still ain't working like they used to, but, following up on some of the advise here, some other possibly useful clues have come up. BTW, perhaps I wasn't clear on this. It's not that my Rev-cgi setup no longer works. All my Rev-cgi scripts still work. What is not working well since the

Thank you, Richard. Following your advice, I have now checked the error logs. The possible source of the problem seems to be that, in the move of my account by DreamHost to a new server, a required library was not reinstalled (Could not open libgdk-x11-2.0.so: libgobject-2.0.so: cannot open

Thanks for the suggestions so far. But, still no go. One more possibility. The old server was 32bit, the new, 64bit. Could that be a problem for the Rev engine? Geez I hope not! The engine version now in my cgi folder is (I think) 2.6. And yesterday I uploaded the Standalone engine (?) that

Nicolas, one of the things I love about Dreamhost is the easy access to the error log. If the problem is just a Rev script error (as opposed to permissions, badn engine file, bad line endings in the script, etc.) the engine will write the Rev error info to stdout, which you can find on a
