I am trying to install the trial version. I pass the first 6 steps and get to the page that says:
All config files have been created. You may now proceed to creating the database tables.

When I click on the link I get a blank page and I don’t know what to do from here.

Not sure without some more specifics like a URL to your board.

Check this post for info that you should provide so that we can help you on the forums, or you can open a ticket to have an infopopper investigate directly.
But otherwise, the general error doesn't give us much to go on. <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

The version I am trying to install is the latest one I could download. It’s a Unix install and I am following the document titled “Install Trial or Licensed Version on Unix Server. It’s for version 6.4 and I have shared hosting service with Verio.

URL to install is:
http://www.allenonline.com/ubbthreads/install.php

Blank page appears after I click on link at this page:
Step 6
All config files have been created. You may now proceed to creating the database tables.

This page: http://www.allenonline.com/ubbthreads/createtable.php comes up blank.

Thanks

I'd check the permissions on all those files..... you can't seem to run any of your files from a browser:

http://www.allenonline.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php

Blank page too.

This could be a permissions thing. Make sure all the script sare readable and executable (try 777 for permissions) including the templates and language directories/files.

Also - although it's showing "passed" for the path settings, what is the path that you used? I'd verify that this is the correct full path from the server's root. Your install seems to choke on any script which tries to include the main.inc.php file.

Excuse me if this is a silly question, but you did enter all the db values right?

I took your advice and rechecked all permissions and the path statement. I played it safe and simply reset them all over. You were right!

Your statement : I'd verify that this is the correct full path from the server's root. Your install seems to choke on any script which tries to include the main.inc.php file. Was right on the money. All is working fine now.

I once again tip my hat to you folks. You folks are the best!

Josh - JC again thank you for your time and excellent help.

Great news. <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> The URL you gave me allowed me to try several scripts and see that all of them chocked... that pointed at the "include("main.inc.php");" statment being the culprit.

Glad you got it working. :yay:
