Instead of the program creating a blank config file and aborting, that would be a good opportunity to run a little wizard questionnaire to set up the program:
The plan is actually to tell the user to fire up a web browser and have PhoenixWeb run the first-time setup wizard. The only trouble is that PhoenixWeb still needs a lot of work before it's ready to be included in the standard Phoenix download. (Right now it only has enough there for a "real" web developer to pick it up and work on it...)
CFSWorks, could you please verify the crc of current windows build of phoenix.exe is 89B9736A ? I keep getting told that the windows build was updated but i'm just not seeing it because the "new" and "old" crc32s are identical, so I don't believe anything was updated/changed.
