Topic: No board, but I've installed..

I've installed my board, made the config file, and it's giving me this:

install.php
The file 'config.php' already exists which would mean that PunBB is already installed. You should go here instead.

So, I go to 'here'
index.php  and then get this:
The file 'config.php' doesn't exist or is corrupt. Please run install.php to install PunBB first.

*sigh* Sorry to be a bother, it's amazing I can write my own emails. Any help would be muchly appreciated.

Re: No board, but I've installed..

Are you sure the information in your config is entered correctly? The PunBB-zip-file contains an example file, compare your file with that one and see if something's wrong.

Thanks, I'll try that.

Hmm, still no luck.

I've got two boards on the same domain.. so I guess it'll be on the same database.

The one that is working, the config.php looks like this:
<?php

$db_type = 'mysql';
$db_host = 'localhost';
$db_name = 'chibidragon_com';
$db_username = 'chibidragon_com';
$db_password = 'password';
$db_prefix = '';
$p_connect = true;

$cookie_domain = '';
$cookie_path = '/';
$cookie_secure = 0;

$language = 'en';

define('PUN', 1);


And the one that is not...

<?php

$db_type = 'mysql';
$db_host = 'localhost';
$db_name = 'chibidragon_com';
$db_username = 'chibidragon_com';
$db_password = 'password';
$db_prefix = 'WQ';
$p_connect = true;

$cookie_name = 'Warriors Quests';
$cookie_domain = '';
$cookie_path = '/';
$cookie_secure = 0;

$language = 'en';

define('PUN', 1);

?>

Any suggestions? I'm totally lost.

Check permissions on config.php

Do, or do not.

Re: No board, but I've installed..

I didn't see anything on config.php with 'permissions'

Permissions means read/write/execute. This sets the permissions of each file, so a file you don't anyone to be able to see, you will remove the permissions for "others". Changing permissions is also known as chmod. Right click the file, you should see something about permissions

Do, or do not.
