@sdetweil Dear Sir, you are a genius, i finally got it working. Surely it was an install issue. Using your installation script, and in the past 2 hours i have already inculcated 4 third party modules, and all seems to be working. I might have a question or two later tomorrow when i make more progress, but for now, the main issue is resolved.
