Re: Blog tutorial not working!

Thank you for your reply Jeremy.

Regarding the link, I already did that, and it works fine when you
place the cake project at the root of where the domain points at. But
if you want to place it in a sub-folder, it won't work, I tested it,
even changing the "RewriteBase / " parameter with the appropiate path.
So I guess something else needs to be done.

Regarding the Blog tutorial, I just deleted everything and did it
again, and now works! So who knows... but I'm sure I only had one
PostController, I strictly followed the tutorial...

Well it's time to keep fighting with CakePHP, thank you!
