Hello again - after trying different things, it was some settings in the .htaccess file.
It is now working - below is the version that works for me.
I added - ## Can be commented out if causes errors, see notes above.
Options FollowSymLinks
and commented out - # RewriteBase /
Hope this helps someone else! Good luck and thanks to the Artio team for a great component.
