iGuest 3 Report post Posted January 28, 2005 If you aren't getting a 403 error, then it's not a 403 error. Did you try to instsall it using Fantastico? If so, does Fantastico say that the forum was created in their registry? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iGuest 3 Report post Posted January 28, 2005 yea everything is created just the URL doesnt work. its a 403 error or something. the admin said that hes fixing it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iGuest 3 Report post Posted January 29, 2005 Ah. So it is a 403! Alright, if you can't get to your home page, go to the file manager and set the permissions on your public_html dir to 755. For instructions on how to do that, read the sticky in the Hosting Support section. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iGuest 3 Report post Posted January 30, 2005 he meant CHMOD the public_html directory to 755also, ive seen other people have this problem search around if this doesnt work. ANd when i first installed my Invision Power Board i was having same problem and after fixiing the CHMOD its been fine. But im not sure about PHPBB, i just think its too big of a hassle. Has problems n stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
