~&~> Maybe it comes from running minivend on other platforms for a while, but in
the two weeks I've experimented with Linux, I've found the minivend rpm to work
like a champ on RedHat6.0.  I don't know what minivend version ships with your
edition, but grab this:

ftp://ftp.minivend.com/pub/minivend-latest.rpm [free! :0) ]

Worked right out of the box for me.

~&~>  Short of that, let us know what errors you're getting, especially when you
run /usr/lib/minivend/bin/restart.  If the minivend daemon is starting without a
hitch, the problem is probably with your Apache config.
