UBB.threads PHP Forum Software Community Forums UBB.classic UBB.classic 6 Support Same message....

Hey, I have everything working. Ok, when I am in general settings, and i finish enetering what i want, i enter my default username and password...the one i want. I know my absolute paths are correct because i got them of of phpinfo.php. Without further adue, the error message:
Sorry, but we couldn't find a record for the UserName you entered. Please try again.
If you are configuring your bulletin board for the first time, this is probably due to the fact that you did not set the proper variable for your CGI Directory absolute path.

Use your Back button to try again.

is there a username and password i need to know before i do this? Thanks.

Do not use PHP's phpinfo() for path information - it can be misleading.

In fact, most of the time, the paths pre-filled when setting up your UBB are nearly correct. If they aren't, use the environmental variables link on the setup page and the instructions in the installation guide to help you figure out the paths.

Either way, this doesn't belong in post-installation troubleshooting, as you haven't installed your board yet.

Moving to Unix Installation (assuming you're on Unix.)

Please post the URL to your board. <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
