Invision Power Board Setup

[randomize]

Hey Guys,
There is an invision power board installer on Cpanel, but when I try to install from there it doesn't work.

Any Ideas why?

Or is there another way to install IPB?

P.S, If this is in the wrong section, could admin move it to the relevant section.

Cheers Randomize

please give me some details on the probelm, cpanel's fansastico should work fine
And yes there is another way to install, it is done my uploading phpbb folder to public_html
then run the install script under something.x10hosting.com/phpbb/install/install.php
Hope this helps, ask for more details if needed.

Hey james

Basically when i log into Cpanel, and I click on Script Library.

There is a link under there to install Invision Power Boards.

I click that link, fill out the detals.

Press install and then it just takes me to a blank page, and it says done at the bottom.

I wanted Invision Power Board because I think its better than phpBB. I was just wondering if you guys can help me.

You shouldn't use that anyway. Unless cPanel offers a version they patched themselves, v1.2 is full of security holes (it's from 2003).

I presume I can get a patch for it.

Secondly a problem with the boards:

This is what i get from the index page:

Warning: mysql_connect(): Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: NO) in /backup/home/gdsn/public_html/boards/sources/Drivers/mySQL.php on line 65

There appears to be an error with the Invision Power Board database.

This is what I get when I am adding new catagories.

I managed to set up the admin and things.


​

However this only happens every so often, so it could be the database or security flaws etc
