Who here thinks these forums should be upgraded to the new phpBB 2? They would look alot better, im not sure but i think the colors may be defualted when upgrading...but the database shouldnt be lost, specially with phpBB which is really easy to install and upgrade. You should try installing ikonboard, lets just say you will be there for a day looking at text like:
The error returned was: FATAL_PATH_ERROR

You will need to edit installer.cgi to enter in your full paths. To do this, download a copy to your hard-drive, open it up in a text editor, and look for the part that starts with:

#
# P R O G R A M S E T - U P
#
# If the installer has requested it, please following
# the instructions below.

Simply follow the instructions that follow, save, re-upload and run it again
Error messages from perl: No such file or directory

Handy Error Message Meanings
"Can't locate DBD..." means that you do not have the needed files to run mySQL/pgSQL for perl
"Can't locate DBI..." means that you do not have the needed files to run mySQL/pgSQL for perl
"Can't locate method TIE_HASH.. means that your servers DB_File installation is botched, contact your webhost
"Can't locate 'functions.pm'... means you you will have to edit the installer script
and goin ...wha?
Oh and this is my second post, whats a LCD? I do see there like temp chips that go in front of your computer, but as my title says "LCD?" exactly!
