G'Day:
It quite nice to find a GOOD and USEFUL tool such as Moodle, thank you 
I'm experiencing two problems after a painless first time install.
After the initial login, the login footer does not change to logged in until I advance to a course link. This is fine for me but may be confusing for a non-technical person.
When attemting to create a new survey I receive the error message "Could not add a new instance of survey"
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thank you
George
Thank you for your response Martin
You are quite right on the first item. I used my site IP instead of the DOMAIN NAME, therefore when it set the PHPSESSID cookie, first for the IP then set one also for the DOMAIN, Moodle got a little confussed. I changed "$CFG->wwwroot = myIP" to "$CFG->wwwroot = myDOMAIN" in the config.php and that sorted the login problem out.
For the second item I set "$CFG->buggy_referer = true;" in the config.php to see if any debug information was returned, but no luck there. The debug information returned by turning on degug on the admin variables page yielded
"Notice: Undefined variable: showall in /path/to/course/lib.php on line 753
Notice: Undefined variable: mine in /path/to/course/lib.php on line 753
Notice: Undefined offset: 4 in /path/to/course/lib.php on line 556
Notice: Undefined offset: 5 in /path/to/course/lib.php on line 556"
on the home page but no information returned for the survey creation error?
Much appreciaton for your efforts.
George
Here is the output of the page which comes when I try to add a new survey:
