I just had an install of it yesterday on here, so it should be OK. I'd delete all the phpbb files off of your site, then download the newest version of PHPBB3. Don't unzip it and upload it using CPanel to public_html. Unzip it now using the extract tool. It will be installed in the folder public_html/phpbb3. you can then select all of the folders and files in that folder and move them to the public_html folder, then delete the phpbb3 folder. Then, you should be able to run the installation process.

Make sure you create a MySQL DB and user, then give that user permissions using the MySql databases tool. Note that all your users and databases start with your cpanel name, eg garrett_database, garrett_user.

Good luck!

I am having a similar problem, but I can't even start installing phpBB3. Whenever I go to location of the phpBB I get a page load error that states: Failed to Connect
Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at silvermoondragon.exofire.net.

silvermoondragon, this is probably due to server downtime and not a phpbb error.

ok, I will try again later and hopefully it will work... the rest of my site works though just not the forum and because I am unfamiliar with phpBB I wasn't really sure what was going on.
