I got it working!

I found that Microsoft FrontPage and PhpDig don't play well together!

Here is what I did:

1. Removed the web from the server (I did not remove the files, I deleted the entire web).
2. I recreated the web without Microsoft FrontPage extensions.
3. Installed PhpDig, and it worked.

Other notes:

1, At first I would unzip PhpDig on my PC then upload the files to the web site. This did not work (PhpDig could not connect to the database). When I uploaded the .zip file then unzipped it on the site (using a Shell account) it worked.
2, After getting PhpDig working and spidering several sites, I installed the Microsoft FrontPage extensions. PhpDig stopped working. It could not connect to the database.

I don't know much about Linux file permissions. I would appreciate any insight into how to get Microsoft FrontPage and PhpDig working on the same sight.

My environment:
Cobalt RAQ4 server,
Linux 2.2,
PHP 4.1.2-3,
MySQL 3.23.54-1,
phpMyAdmin 2.2.6.
