You either provided the wrong path to the catalog root directory, or
the user which Interchange is running as has no permission to read it.

Why? IIRC you should never see the port 7786 displayed.. You need to 
visit http://localhost/cgi-bin/ic/CATALOG (or something similar), 
and it would take care of connecting to 7786 on its own.

If you did that and got this message, then try adding this in
interchange.cfg:

  SocketPerms 0666

and restart Interchange.

No, VendURL needs to be something like
http://localhost/cgi-bin/ic/CATNAME.

That's ok.
