Hi

I followed the installation procedures up to:

4. Go to your website where setup.php should start automatically. If not, you should run setup.php manually by entering your full site url followed by /setup.php. Example: http://www.yourdomain.com/setup.php.

I have changed _config.php to config.php, uploaded the "files" folder to my web host, and changed permissions to certain files to '777'.

Now I've tried manually doing it by typing my domain/setup.php and get a 404 Page Not Found Error. I've also tried opening setup.php directly from a FTP shortcut and get a bunch of code over a webpage with the PHP.Fusion logo and a few clickable buttons and a drop down box on it. But it's impossible to understand because of the code everywhere.

Any ideas what I am doing wrong? Thank you

this is host dependent are you sure you have the http://www.YOURDOMAIN.com/ section right? (some need to add ~USERNAME or something)

Yep. I tried the three domains attached to my web host account with no success.

When i try http://www.mydomain.com I get a 500 Internal Server Error. When I try http://mydomain.com I get a 403 Access Forbidden Error. And when i try my FTP server address I get another 403 Access Forbidden Error.

So I dunno what to do

Who is the host provider? Could be some kind of issue there. Doubtful but could be.

Maybe a regular user can get the web address from you and they might be able to look and see what the problem is.

Hmm. I installed phpBB and now everything works. I guess that was a noob mistake. Thanks for the help.
