Hi,

Looks like the installation procedure on debian has changed.
I tried to install on Debian 6.0 (squeeze) machine. I used
rackspace.comcloud server. It didn't work out. Many errors.

I was using 3.2.10 on rackspace.com debian 5 (lenny) server. It was perfect.


Any help please.

Regards,
Somasekhar Rao K
