it is PHP version 4.4.4
and
MySQL version 4.1.21-standard


I did search it but nothing close to that and doesnt have "all the words" option ...

so you should be able to work out what values to enter for the variables yourself
OK, I created the mysql database with user and pw

The config.php file is commented throughout
OK, I just added/replaced it

When you have finished, save the file and then upload the entire contents of the 'upload/' folder to your web server.
OK done

When this is done, point your browser at http://www.example.com/forums/ (http://<font color=)install/install.php (where www.example.com/forums/ is the URL of your vBulletin)

I tried my url to install/install.php
and got this "Fatal error: Database class not found"

so I swapped the database names
still got the same error

am I missing something ?

Are you installing to a new and clean database? If so then this means you have not uploaded all the vB files.

Notepad made config.php like a scramble codes

Wordpad may have cause the problem

I am installing the dreamweaver now and testing again

I will let you know if that solved or not

I misread one word "DATABASE TYPE"

TYPE ... its not a "name" ... somehow dreamweaver is easier to read throughly

:o

Problem Solved now ... Thanks for the support.
