John,

Thanks for responding so quickly with positive suggestions, that is much
appreciated.

I think I must be using the same as the Bazaar PPA is in my
sources.list.  I think I must be failing to read the aptitude entry
though as it doesn't appear to tell me where the deb file came from.

I initially tried:

        title = 'Russel\'s Bazaar Branches'
        log.roll = 'weekly'
        
        [ADS]
                name = 'The ADS Library'
                cachepath = '/home/users/russel/Loggerhead/ADS'
        
               [[ADS]]                                                                                
                       folder = '/home/www/www.russel.org.uk/html/Bazaar/ADS'                         
                       description = 'The ADS Mainline Branch'                                        
                       url = 'http://www.russel.org.uk/Bazaar/ADS'                                    
        
based on information in the example file (which appears to be in the
installation twice, once
as /usr/share/doc/loggerhead/loggerhead.conf.example and once
as /usr/share/doc/loggerhead/examples/loggerhead.conf.example, so I
guess there is a deb configuration issues there).

This just gives me a white page.

Based on your email I tried:

        title = 'Russel\'s Bazaar Branches'
        log.roll = 'weekly'
        
        [ADS]
                name = 'The ADS Library'
                cachepath = '/home/users/russel/Loggerhead/ADS'
                auto_publish_folder = '/home/www/www.russel.org.uk/html/Bazaar/ADS'
                url_prefix = 'http://www.russel.org.uk/Bazaar/ADS'

But got the same result.  I am fairly confident (based on the fact that
serve-branches works fine and there are a lot of working Loggerhead
installations out there) that I am doing something trivially wrong, and
that when what it is is known I will look very foolish.

I haven't got to setting up Apache yet, I am still trying to get a
manually "start-loggerhead -f" to do the right thing.  But your proposal
looks a lot easier than the other one.  I suspect there needs to be a
Loggerhead wiki on which stuff like this can be put.

Thanks again.
