kam42705 Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 Thanks a lot for the assistance... Can a moderator please lock this? [hide]Currently, I am attempting to make a forum of my own using phpBB Version 2.0.22. Using the hosting services provided by 1111mb.com, I created a MYsql Database, and I'm attempting to use the MYsql database to host the forums. Unfortunately, MYsql has been a bit complicated, and I cannot seem to understand what I ought to do in order to use phpBB's forum on a MYSQL database. Any help is appreciated. Note: I did try following the phpBB installation guide, but unfortunately, it sheds no light onto how I ought to create the forum.[/hide] i mean wth no1 cares about that weak noob that was scared of the great almighty lord ZAROS!

____ Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 create a database - check? upload the phpbb software to your webhost - check? go to ./install from the phpbb dir - check? follow said prompts - check? That's really all you have to do, where'd you drop the ball? :-? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r2d2 Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 you have a host server, I presume? I suggest you upload phpmyadmin to the server in addition to phpbb, so you can manage the database more easily. once it is all on the server, go to http://www.yoursite.com/forum/install.php (if you installed phpbb to /forum/) There are 10 types of people: Those who understand binary, and those who don't.Appreciate Bacteria!
