I thought you said you didn't know much about unix?  That was well
spotted.

Basically you can connect to mysql on localhost in two ways.  Either via
port 3306 or via a file-socket.  The socket method wasn't working
because the filesystem permissions were wrong.

There should be a big error message generated by perl/mkdoc in the
apache error log.

I don't know where suse apache logs are.  On a default redhat system
they would be in '/var/log/httpd'.

So you would be able to read the last error message with this command:

    tail /var/log/httpd/error_log

The PUBLIC_DOMAIN is the read-only web-site that visitors see.  The
ADMIN_DOMAIN is the editor interface where authors can create and modify
documents and the SU_DOMAIN is the administrator interface for creating
and removing users (The documentation isn't clear enough and needs
updating).

> PUBLIC_DOMAIN   www.example.com
> ADMIN_DOMAIN    admin.example.com
> SU_DOMAIN       editor.example.com

I would switch the values for ADMIN and SU.
