acidfree + filemanager

Right after I posted the above, I continued to screw around with things and finally got it to work! YES!

Here's what I did.

1. I have Drupal 4.7 , Acid Free 4.7 and Filemanager CVS installed

2. AcidFree and FileManager are both enabled on my modules list.

3. Then I went into SETTINGS --> FileManager. It gave me an error that 'private' did not exist. Once I created this directory in my ./files/ directory and again on my drupal root, things are working SWIMMINGLY!

I hope this helps out others!

"[...] anyone have similar problems???"
Yeah, just this morning I ran into that same user warning. I think that I rushed through the acidfree and file manager module installations and I forgot to update the database at some key point. Anyway, this is how I sorted it out:

Following comment #5 here:
http://drupal.org/node/81539

I ran update.php and selected '2' from the acidfree drop down menu. This didn't work because the share column was already present in the acidfree table in my mysql database.

When I went to add acidfree content I received an error about a missing database table named 'file'. Running update.php for the file manager module didn't remedy the problem, so I compared my new database with a previous working database and I found the missing 'file' table. I exported 'file' from the working database, imported it into my new database and now the acidfree and file manager modules are working properly.

I imported the following SQL Dump into my database (some identifying information has been changed):
