[FX.php List] Startup problems

[Michael Layne]

Jonathan,

 From my experience, that particular error is related to permissions/ 
access.  Are you passing a password to the database?  Does the FM  
client need one?

Also, in order to use the CWP Engine, the database needs a special  
Extended Privilege with a keyword of  'fmxml'.  And that privilege  
needs to be on for the user accessing through CWP.  You may already  
know all this, but that's what it sounds like to me.  Write back any  
other info if that's not it or...

HTH,

Michael
