Dear Forum,

I am having a very frustrating time...I installed Joomla via the automatinc install on godaddy..switched on legacy and installed joomlacomments....everything worked well..in fact you have a great product!!!

The problem is that I needed to reinstall the joomla package and after I deleted and reinstalled I re-installed the joomlacomments and everything seemed fine....the add comments section is visible on each entry..however when i go to add a comment, i enter all the details and click send but I get the spinning arrows and this keeps going on forever.

I have read the forums and tried the "htaccess" file solution but it didnt work...I take it the problem lies with the database as the comment obviously must be written somewhere. I am not a whizz..so I dont know where to look for the config. When I uninstalled Joomla it did remove the databases and the re-install created new ones but I did install the package in the same directory (root) so I wonder whethere there might have been some file in there that was point ing to the wrong database...I searched and could not find any and then I re-installed a second time but still no luck.

I can try again, installing in a different directory, but I just wonder before i do that whether there is a file or config that I am missing that would cause this spinning arrows problem.
Cheers,
Ross
