Re: Ok. testing punBB out.. :)

ah.. first question..

installation was a BREEEEEEZE!!!!!! big_smile

just a little odd thing i saw..

after installation i was prompted to create a config.php file with the following contents:

<?php

$db_type = 'mysql';
$db_host = 'localhost';
$db_name = 'blinque_community';
$db_username = 'blinque_forum';
$db_password = '****************';
$db_prefix = 'punbb_';
$p_connect = false;

$cookie_name = 'punbb_cookie';
$cookie_domain = '';
$cookie_path = '/';
$cookie_secure = 0;
$cookie_seed = '045051d9';

define('PUN', 1);

umm.. i noticed that the php tag wasnt closed... is this normal? is there a reason for this???  my forum seems to work fine..

just for the heck of it, i closed the php tag in the config file..

<?php

$db_type = 'mysql';
$db_host = 'localhost';
$db_name = 'blinque_community';
$db_username = 'blinque_forum';
$db_password = 'wedochickenright';
$db_prefix = 'punbb_';
$p_connect = false;

$cookie_name = 'punbb_cookie';
$cookie_domain = '';
$cookie_path = '/';
$cookie_secure = 0;
$cookie_seed = '045051d9';

define('PUN', 1);
?>

no problems also..

what gives?

You might want to edit your post and remove the db password.

Glad you like PunBB, the size of the code base is rather nice.
