Re: N/A

Go to www.yoursite.com/path/to/forum/config.php, see if you see an error there.

Re: N/A

Paste the code here, be sure to replace any sensitive information (eg: passwords) with something else

Re: N/A

Nothing, as far as I can tell: I would make sure you've saved the file as a plain text file.

Hi,
This is the exact config.php file:

<?php

$db_type = 'mysql';
$db_host = 'localhost';
$db_name = 'localhost_punbb';
$db_username = 'root';
$db_password = '';
$db_prefix = '';
$p_connect = false;

$cookie_name = 'punbb_cookie';
$cookie_domain = '';
$cookie_path = '/';
$cookie_secure = 0;
$cookie_seed = 'b64ee421';

define('PUN', 1); 

If you are wondering, i don't have a password on the database - i am putting one as we speak.
What is wrong with config.php?
Thanks,
Elliott.

you have no $db_prefix = ''

Will here is my config.php and i have a win32 xp computer/server that i use " XAMPP - all in one"  on it to make my site be for i upload any files so if i Fu** up i can fix it and not take my site's down

<?php

$db_type = 'mysql';
$db_host = 'localhost';
$db_name = 'forum_punbb';
$db_username = 'punbb';
$db_password = 'PASSWORD';
$db_prefix = '_punbb';
$p_connect = false;

$cookie_name = 'punbb_cookie';
$cookie_domain = '';
$cookie_path = '/';
$cookie_secure = 0;
$cookie_seed = 'acfeff44';

define('PUN', 1);

Have you run the " XAMPP - Control Panel " ane set all of it up like the FTP / Open all the ports and or reset your DocumentRoot?
NOTE: Can you log in to the phpmyadmin? if not try this " http://localhost/phpmyadmin " on the server!!!

The db prefix is not required to be anything other than it is. That is merely for identifying different tables if you do multiple installs within the same db.
