Please help-trouble on logging in

[acid]

I go through the install and everything is fine, I delete the install file and then It prompts me to log in. When the page opens for me to log in it has the following message

Warning: Cannot add header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/teamacid/public_html/forum/admin/config.php3:38) in /home/teamacid/public_html/forum/admin/functions.php3 on line 1187

I try to log in and it says that I am not a valid administrator. I know that I am using the right password. Please help. Thanks in advance for your help. Chris

there is likely "white space" after '?>' in config.php(3)

delete it and you should be fine

put your cursor after the ?> and drag down. there will likely be spaces there highlighted.

delete them

Does anyone know what would cause this error. Now I am not getting any kind of login just this error.

You probably mis-edited your config.php (missing " most likely)
