Hi There -

Have tried to create a local backup using several different tutorials all with the same result: when I go to my home page, everything looks in order, but when I click on any and all links, I get a 404 - Page Not Found.

I'm running a Civicspace site.

I used phpMyAdmin to download and BigDump.php to upload my database to my local server. All tables appear to be in order. The home page works! Yaaaay! (I'm still in shock and awe that I found BigDump on Community Plumbing.)

I changes the three settings in the settings.php file to reflect the database and new URL. Same with the CivicCRM settings file.

My thinking is that there's a permissions problem with the directories, but I have no ideas what files and folders need what permissions. Otherwise, I have no idea how to troubleshoot this. Any ideas?

I'd greatly appreciate any help. I've downloaded the site twice and installed the database 4 times using pretty much the same procedure as outlined in the tutorials that I found. All with the same result. I'm completely at a loss.

I'm running a MAMP server on OSX 10.4 Tiger. One of the ramifications of this is that the URL is http://localhost:8888/sitename/

But the mysql database seems to just read 'localhost', not 'localhost:8888'. The front page didn't work until I got the mySQL user and password right on the settings files and it likes 'localhost'.

At the bottom of the front page is the following error message: user error: Duplicate entry '0' for key 1

query: INSERT INTO accesslog (title, path, url, hostname, uid, timestamp) values('', 'node', '', '::1', 0, 1148255836) in /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/fabracadabraLocal/2006-0520_Changes1/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 66.

Gah! I haven't got a clue what this means.

I can't think of anything else to mention.

Hope you're all having a great day,

Thanks for reading this,
