Need help installing boards

[luegames]

I am installing Delta boards

The readme says:

1. Installation

- Edit the file 'config.php'.
- Create the tables of the boards using 'delta.sql'.
- Upload all the files that are in the folder 'upload'.
- Chmod the folder where all the files are in to 0777.
- Register an account (this will be your admin account).
- Set the level of that account to '5' (admin level).

I edited the file, created the MySQL table (I think), I uploaded the files, how do I chmod the folder?

In cpanel .....in file manager if you click on the folder name ...then in the top right corner of the file manager there will be some options if you press change permissions you can set it there.

So I should change it to 777?

http://luegames.x10hosting.com/boards does not work

 

[bigguy]

if it is like any other forum software you should have to point your browser to the folder the install file is in.....sort of like this http://luegames.x10hosting.com/boards/install. php but this is just a guess. I have never installed delta boards before

Files in folder:
act.php
admin.php
admin_index.php
admin_menu.php
backup.php
board_editor.php
cat_editor.php
config.php
edit_profile.php
edit_welcome.php
footer.php
gen_config.php
header.php
index.php
login.php
logout.php
mod.php
mod_index.php
mod_menu.php
mod_usr_editor.php

that's most of them

hi there!!!

Files/Folder Permissions:
Make sure your files and folders have the correct permissions. Please make sure the config.php is set to 644.

some folders ---- 755
all php files ---- 644

Do you have correct files/folder permissions?

Some errors occur when files/folder permissions vary but for you case it seems to be a server error but check your files/folder permissions....
