[Orca-users] No data files being created

[Steven L. Sesar]

Apparently, I'm missing something. I am trying to get an orca server up, and 
I'm having some difficulties. To be clear, I am attempting to generate data 
files/graphs locally on the server, before pushing the client portion out to 
production servers. My problem, is that data files never get generated.

I have followed the install instructions verbatim. No errors were thrown 
during configure/compile/install/runtime. SE toolkit is installed. 

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
