OK Derrick, since you say you're quite new at this, we're going to go easy on you this time (but only this time! ;-) ) Questions like this should first be researched through the email list archives, the FAQ, and the on-line documentation. In this particular case, you will find that this issue has been discussed quite a bit yesterday. It's a problem with setup that still needs to be resolved. There's also suggestions for work-arounds in the meantime. If you follow the mail list (which I assume you don't), you too will be amazed at the number of people that will report this problem without checking first to see if it has been answered. This will continue to be true even well after we post the ultimate solution, if the history of like situations is any indicator.
