I don't really want to be annoying but can anyone help me please..

The error in detail is here

Configuration Issues ...
Setup has determined that you must manually edit the paths to Settings.pl or other core files. If you need help, contact E-Blah technical support.

The following may help you figure out what your paths are:
Document Root:
Script name: e:\domains\s\sabaandsticky.co.uk\user\htdocs\cgi-bin\blah\Setup.pl
File(s) Not Loaded: ./Settings.pl
Reason for failure: No such file or directory

I am also a new user so cannot help you but can sympathise. I have just installed Blah for the first time and have got eaxactly the same error.
As I understand it the script that is running in "Setup.pl" is saying that it cannot find the file called "Settings.pl" because its not in the folder it expects it to be.
This is caused by a mistake in the code in the "Setup.pl" script.
I'm saying its a mistake because the file and folder structure is created automatically when you upload the original folders to your site, and the Settings.pl file is in the same folder as Setup.pl.

To fix it you have to relocate the Settings.pl file to the folder that Setip.pl needs it to be in or, change the code in Setup.pl to allow it find Settings.pl in the folder its already in.

Well, it's working really fine using linux servers.

I know Justin is developing eblah under windows, so I don't think, it's really an "error" but rather something mysterious about windows paths?
