[sword-devel] I have been unable to get personal commentary to work

[sword-devel@crosswire.org]

Changing the permissions as you suggested didn't help.
# ls -la /usr/share/sword/modules/comments/rawfiles/personal
total 716
drwxrwxrwx    2 root     root         4096 Jan 31 22:19 .
drwxrwxrwx    3 root     root         4096 Oct 21 22:26 ..
-rw-rw-rw-    1 root     root       127312 Dec 12  1999 nt
-rw-rw-rw-    1 root     root        49476 Dec 12  1999 nt.vss
-rw-rw-rw-    1 root     root       370320 Dec 12  1999 ot
-rw-rw-rw-    1 root     root       144690 Dec 12  1999 ot.vss
-rw-rw-rw-    1 root     root          176 Dec 12  1999 personal.conf

I still get "a Personal Commentary Module not found!"
error message.
(I even tried running the program as root, and it still didn't work.)
