Problem installing Dreamwidth.....

[notdefined]

I'm following the dialogue to install dreamwidth under Ubuntu 9.04. All is going well until I execute the bin/checkconfig.pl. I get this error:

dw@web01:~$ bin/checkconfig.pl --no=ljconfig
[Checking for Perl Modules....]
[Checking LJ Environment...]

Problem:

* Failed to load ljlib.pl: Can't locate DW/Hooks.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /home/dw/cgi-bin /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.10.0 /usr/local/share/perl/5.10.0 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.10 /usr/share/perl/5.10 /usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at /home/dw/cgi-bin/ljlib-local.pl line 6.

Any clue what I'm doing wrong??

Hi there!

First off, the problem described in this entry shouldn't happen anymore -- we fixed it a while back. If you're still having problems, you should make a new toplevel post to dw_dev -- since this is an old thread, likely the only people who will see it are the people like me who have subscribed to all comments in the community, and I'm not sure how many of them there are!

Secondly, we've got some documentation on the wiki to help you get started (both with Mercurial and with the DW development process in general):

A new top-level post to the community with the specifics of what problems you're running into will get a much more useful answer! (I Am Not The Geek.)
