Trying to set a custom Permalinks
Used
http://domainname.com/%year%/%monthnum%/%day%
Problem is the address then becomes http://domainname.com/http:/domainname.com/2010/05/18/10
It's duplicating the domain name for some reason.
Notice also the double slash gets split. One slash end up in front of the second http. It's defaulting to this no matter what I put in the window for the custom permalink.
Any help greatly appreciated.

Your permalink should not contain the website address, click one of the default settings and it should fill out the setting for you.
If the address isn't in the permalink box, switch to default permalinks, disable plugins, and switch to the default theme, then verify if you're then able to set a permalink setting without the problem occuring.

Just to be sure I understand...
1. Reset to default
2. Make sure nothing is in the custom address box
3. Go into Appearance/Themes and activate the default theme
4. Try to set up a custom permalink again
5. If it works, reset the desired theme.
If I'm confused on anything, I hope you'll let me know.
Thanks very much!

Yes, that's pretty much it, but do try disabling plugins to... :)

Ah. The solution was the first thing you said. Didn't need the rest.
I.e., the problem was that what I put in the custom window:
http://domainname.com/%year%/%monthnum%/%day%
should have just been
/%year%/%monthnum%/%day%
