What you see below is a cut and paste from each step of the install process. It appears that everything works, until, I click on createtables.

To my way of thinking it should create the tables but I must be missing something. The install on my web host went prefect. This is a local copy to play with before I make changes to the real thing.

Installing Now:

In order to automate the installation procedure, we first need to make sure all of the proper files have write access. If any of these checks fail you will need to change the permissions on these files. (Chmod 666 or 664 on linux and granting write access to the files/folders on Windows. Your stylesheets directory will probably need to be 777 so you can create new stylesheets from the admin section).
Note: The only files that are necessary at this point are main.inc.php, config.inc.php and theme.inc.php. If any of the non-critical files fail you can continue the installation and change the permissions on these once the program is installed.


Main Directory
main.inc.php PASSED
config.inc.php PASSED
theme.inc.php PASSED
filters/all files PASSED
includes/.php files PASSED
stylesheets/all files PASSED
All checks passed.


Connecting to server PASSED
Connecting to database PASSED
Creating a table PASSED
Dropping a table PASSED
All test passed


Checking all path/url information. Please make sure you have all files uploaded, or you will get false reporing. NOTE: The first 3 might fail if PHP is unable to open files via a URL. If that is the case you may continue to the next step.

phpurl (http://andrew-07n4xy6x/test/ubbthreads) PASSED
images (http://andrew-07n4xy6x/test/ubbthreads/images) PASSED
styledir (http://andrew-07n4xy6x/test/ubbthreads/stylesheets) PASSED
path (D:\Inetpub\wwwroot\test\ubbthreads) PASSED
imagepath (D:\Inetpub\wwwroot\test\ubbthreads\images) PASSED
stylepath (D:\Inetpub\wwwroot\test\ubbthreads\stylesheets) PASSED

All checks passed


All config files have been created. You may now proceed to creating the database tables.

This is the confusing part to me. Why does it cut off \t in that opening statement. What you see below is a cut and paste and it pushes est\ubbthreads/ubbt to the nest line. If I look at the view source from that page what you see is this:
Failed opening 'D:\Inetpub\wwwroot est\ubbthreads/ubbt.inc.php' for inclusion (include_path='c:\php4\pear') in <b>d:\inetpub\wwwroot\test\ubbthreads\main.inc.php
