What am I missing - installing lite version

[willm]

I cant even get past step 2... I get:

Warning: Failed opening 'config.php' for inclusion (include_path='/usr/local/php:/usr/local/web/apache/htdocs/polls:/usr/local/web/apache/php:/usr/local/web/apache/htdocs/phpMyAdmin') in /usr/local/web/apache/htdocs/3d/newboard/admin/install.php on line 55

Make sure that you have filled in all the details in the config.php file. It should look something like this:
<... snip ...>

However, I have the config.php filled out correctly. Do I need to set some permissions or something else simple I am missing?

Thanks

I'm moving this to the vB lite forum, where all Lite related matters go.


it looks like you have something in the config.php messed up or you don't have it in the /admin folder

if you paste your detail from config.php here, (**** out your password) it would be a lot easier to see what's wrong.

going on the info you've given, there's no way.

// only mysql is supported at the moment
$dbservertype="mysql";
// hostname or ip of server
$servername="localhost";
// username and password to log onto db server
$dbusername="root";
$dbpassword="*******";
// name of database
$dbname="freewareforum";
//password for control panel
$cppassword="admin";

all of the variables are what we use on our other board, so I know they are working. I just created the freewareforum db.

Thanks

I got the same error message. This can be fixed by adding your forum directory (full path) into include-path in you php.ini file.

HTH.
