Hi,
I have just installed OJS 1.1.7 on my ISP server, It is a linux, apache, mysql, php server, and I guess they use virtual hosts for the domains.
After installing i go into login.php fill in it and i receive a "Not page found" HTTP 404 error. I realised that I may access Home, Current, About, Notify, Contact and Search sections but no Archive and Login (although I am addressed to It after installation steps, after this time I never can access it again). It is very strange, all the files are correctly uploaded on the server (I've done it twice), the database is correctly created, but everytime i try to acces those sections i've got 404 errors (the files are there!!!, I can see them on my ftp program). I even installed diferent versions: 1.1.6 and 1.1.7 having the same problem.
In the final step of the installation process i have noticed something strange. The message says that I need to set some directories so that the server can write to them (see below) but these directories do not exit in my server. The root directory of my server contains de directories: cgi-bin, data, errors, html (web directory) and logs. But there is no either fcgi-bin/images/custom nor fcgi-bin/images/articleimages. How can it say they are "currently writeable"?
I would appreciate it if someone could help me, whether here or in by email.
Regards,
Borja Gonzalez

Looks like your server is running PHP as a CGI (specifically, through FastCGI) and not as an Apache module. This causes PHP to set some server variables (like SCRIPT_FILENAME) to the path of the PHP binary and not the script.
You should be able to fix the erroneous redirects by deleting the block of code from include/common.php:
and relying on the static URL defined in the chBaseURL field in the tbljournalconfig table.
