Topic: can't install punbb

So, I've done everything what Dr.Jeckyl shows in his "installing punbb" video, uploaded the files, created MySQL database and user.

but when I click "install.php" on the site nothing happens.

what should I do? also i'm quite noobish at this so don't be so harsh tongue

thanks!

That seems to be a free host. Any chance they are blocking install scripts.

Re: can't install punbb

sad

well a friend of mine figured that you could write the config.php file yourself, but I don't know what to write in db_host or db_type?

Re: can't install punbb

No, because the tables etc wouldn't have been created.

What you could try is just renaming install.php to, say, awhoogha.php or so. See if it runs then.

Re: can't install punbb

This certainly appears to have something to do with the way the host has things setup and not PunBB in which case there is not much we can do. Why not simply ask them why you have having trouble.
