I think I found the problem, but am not sure how to correct.
When I chose "mw_forum" from the database dropdown list, it displayed what appears to be a table listing for "mw-forum".
All of the tables in the list begin with "mw59"_xxxx, instead of "mw58". After seeing this, I vaguely recall typing mw59 during the setup, but thought that I had caught the error before submitted the setup. I guess not. Can all of those table names be corrected, or should I change the "prefix" config.php file to "mw58"?

When I use the link provided by my host, I get to the phpMyAdmin dsplay panel.
In the left column, there is a window "Database". The window has a dropdown list, containing the following:
"Information Schema (16)
mw_forum (17)"
The second ("mw_forum") matchs the table name I assigned during the original setup process.
Is using the underbar (_) in the table name causing any problems?
Am I getting close?

Thanks for the quick reply.
I have been working on this project over the past two days, but I can't recall any problems with the installation.
Here is what my config.php file looks like: (I have blocked out the user name and PW)
<?php
$db_type = 'mysql';
$db_host = 'mysql.madwest1958.org';
$db_name = 'mw_forum';
$db_username = '#######';
$db_password = '#######';
$db_prefix = 'mw58_';
$p_connect = false;
$cookie_name = 'punbb_cookie';
$cookie_domain = '';
$cookie_path = '/';
$cookie_secure = 0;
$cookie_seed = '7c3376b9';
define('PUN', 1);
Thanks again

Thanks for the tip....
I have enabled DEBUG, and tryed to rerun the process again. This is the expanded version of the error msg:
"An error was encountered
File: /home/.dempsey/madwest1/madwest1958.org/forum/include/cache.php
Line: 84
PunBB reported: Unable to fetch forum config
Database reported: Table 'mw_forum.mw58_config' doesn't exist (Errno: 1146)"
Now, can anyone give me some guidance on were to go next/
Many Thanks
Really lost!

I'm not sure what that process involves..... Was your questions directed to my post, or to one of the others?
Cheers

Greetings everyone.....
I have entered "uncharted waters" by trying to add a forum to my RW 3.5.1 (Build 264) website.
Based on the recommendations on this subject in the RealMac forum, I chose PunBB. It seemed to fit my needs, based on my limited experience in this area.
The RealMac tutorial in this forum (#7501) seemed to be rather straight forward to me. I was pretty proud of myself, as every step outlined seem to go without a hitch.
BUT.... when I try to go to the "index.php" page, this message panel is displayed:
"An error was encountered
Error: Unable to fetch the forum config"
This is where my technical skills end.
Does anyone have any suggestions what I should do next"
Thanks in advance for your help
