This is a semi-advanced configuration, but nothing 20 minutes of google'ing can't tell you. You need to calm down, buddy. All this information can be found on one of several manual pages and/or online documentation. You claim that there is an error - well, what's the error? Where is it? We haven't seen any errors, how are we to tell exactly what is wrong? You don't "resolve" a URI, you access it. What happens when you go to http://gforge.mesa.com/projects/foo? Again, this is where that error would help. Give http://gforge.mesa.com/projects/foo/ a shot - take note, the trailing slash. Like I said, we're all here to help, but not if you're running around like a chicken with your head cut off. Take this email, and sit down, and think about exactly what is REALLY wrong. Document it, describe the problems and your current setup. Include "exact" errors - don't say "it didn't work" - that doesn't help us at all. Include logs. This isn't asking too much. When you've got all this, come back to us, and we'd be happy to help.
