Thanks Tegan. Yes, I needed to set the permissions anew (1 on your list) and
that got rid of the message in #2 of my list (copied below). However #1 on
the list is still a problem. As for #3, when I click on Edit or Search, I
now get the appropriate page in each case, but without any editable window.

Removing the .flock file, which I did afterwards, had no discernable effect.

Anyone with other advice? (please don't tell me I need to reinstall)...
