    Yes, after getting administrator control from my computer, I was able to change the hosts file. I know that is right. I double clicked on abyssws.exe right from where I saved the download in the c:/abyss web server folder.

    I changed that line to: C:/Abyss web server  and I double clicked on the abyssws application.

    This is what I got:

    -- Default host on port 80 has errors and is stopped (Local URL http://127.0.0.1)

    The system cannot find the file specified. (key: root/server/host/scripting/cgi/errorfile - file: C:\Abyss web server\Abyss Web Server\abyss.conf - line: 48 - col: 5)

    Error while reading/setting the configuration of module scripting (key: root/server/host/scripting/cgi/errorfile - file: C:\Abyss web server\Abyss Web Server\abyss.conf - line: 48 - col: 5)

    Console local URL: http://127.0.0.1:9999

    Do I need to change it to C:/Abyss web server/Abyss web server ?

    Do I need to change the forward slash to a backwards slash?

    I feel so close...

    Hi, Francisco... I am now in the middle of step 5. I opened abyss.conf and found the following line:

    I:\ZUNE\software\restaurar firmware\Abyss Web Server\

    I have the file folder saved on my c drive and unpacked the download into it. I know I need to reference c:\abyss web server somewhere, right? I don't know whether to replace the line above completely, or only part of it, or none of it. Please, exactly what edit am I making? And after I make the edit, what exactly do I double click on?

    Thanks,

    David
