    Need help installing boards

    I am installing Delta boards

    The readme says:

    1. Installation

    - Edit the file 'config.php'.
    - Create the tables of the boards using 'delta.sql'.
    - Upload all the files that are in the folder 'upload'.
    - Chmod the folder where all the files are in to 0777.
    - Register an account (this will be your admin account).
    - Set the level of that account to '5' (admin level).

    I edited the file, created the MySQL table (I think), I uploaded the files, how do I chmod the folder?

    In cpanel .....in file manager if you click on the folder name ...then in the top right corner of the file manager there will be some options if you press change permissions you can set it there.

    if it is like any other forum software you should have to point your browser to the folder the install file is in.....sort of like this http://luegames.x10hosting.com/boards/install. php but this is just a guess. I have never installed delta boards before

    Files in folder:
    act.php
    admin.php
    admin_index.php
    admin_menu.php
    backup.php
    board_editor.php
    cat_editor.php
    config.php
    edit_profile.php
    edit_welcome.php
    footer.php
    gen_config.php
    header.php
    index.php
    login.php
    logout.php
    mod.php
    mod_index.php
    mod_menu.php
    mod_usr_editor.php

    that's most of them

    hi there!!!

    Files/Folder Permissions:
    Make sure your files and folders have the correct permissions. Please make sure the config.php is set to 644.

    some folders ---- 755
    all php files ---- 644

    Do you have correct files/folder permissions?

    Some errors occur when files/folder permissions vary but for you case it seems to be a server error but check your files/folder permissions....

    *4*
    .::: Regards, n4tec :::.
