While it is entirely possible that I am a clueless noob, I think something outside of my control is going on with my installation.

I am running 0.31 and have created the game. I can create new users, but they cannot save settings on the server, and after selecting their options, users only get the chat window and the menu. There is no game information available at all!

Thanks for your help!

Initially the server is set to be closed. All you need to do is go into the admin menu under configuration, then edit the main option. You will see a radio button to turn the server on, then your ready to go once you submit that change.

Something is still amiss. The server was open, and when I go through the admin panel to close and re-open it, the setting to close will not save. Unless this is something that has been seen before, I will probably just bag this install.

Thanks!

It sounds like you may have edited the config file manually and the permissions are not the same as PHP so PHP can't overwrite the file.

If you didn't use the install program that can also cause a permissions problem. The installer was designed to avoid all permission problems. If you uploaded each file separately after unpacking offline then that is a problem.

Also, you shouldn't edit any of the config files outside of the built in game editors.
