Hi Richard,

I have tried it without the trailing "\" and it does not work. But
here is the thing I discovered.

When starting the server I can reach the web pages for the fossil
clone I have (myclone.fossil - as
I mentioned before).

Then I thought maybe it has something to do with capital letters in
the file name (well was out of
any ideas and the fossil clone has no caps :) ) and created a new repo
called MyProjects.fossil.
Then I started the server as before

  fossil server .

and tried to get to the project (http://localhost:8080/MyProjects). It
displayed the page for this
repo with a title "Unnamed Fossil Project" and in the body there was a
link "setup/config".

When you click on that link you configure the project. I have added
the project name, description
and the index page. After I have done these I redirected the browser
again to this repo
(http://localhost:8080/MyProjects) and have gotten the same error.

Kind Regards,
rd

You are correct.  If you pass a directory name to the "server" command then
fossil will serve all repositories named *.fossil in that directory.  I do
this frequently myself.  I know it works.

But I always do it on Linux and Mac.  I haven't tested this on windows
lately.  And windows tends to give problems for these kinds of things.
Also, I always omit the trailing directory separator.  Please try your
command without the trailing "\":

      fossil server .

Let me know if omitting the trailing \ does not clear the problem.
