I C - Thanks smile Will try that.

I have made several attempts to install PunBB.

Following the instruction exactly, I'm told to access install.php from the directory the files were uploaded to e.g http://www.mydomain.com/forum/install.php

My root installation is then shown as: e.g. http://www.mydomain.com/forum/upload/  - I'm confused why this should be so when the forum should be just /forum/

After correctly completing the installation and uploading config.php into the root of /forum as detailed in the install page, I am getting "config.php not found or is corrupted".

Should the config file actually be in uload directory? Or what am I doing wrong? I'm very confused.

Thanks for any help smile

Just treied to install and got this error...
"The file 'config.php' doesn't exist or is corrupt. Please run install.php to install PunBB first." this was after installing.

I upload the confi.php file exactly as instructed:

<?php

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

$cookie_name = 'punbb_cookie';
$cookie_domain = '';
$cookie_path = '/';
$cookie_secure = 0;
$cookie_seed = '849ec713';

define('PUN', 1);

THats the complete file as given - I've XX 'ed password etc but they were entered correctly.
It was upload in ASCII...
Any suggestions please?
