Whats The Server And Port?

Recommended Posts

If you have copied the files onto the server and are installing, then you need to enter "localhost" in the server field.If you are trying to connect to server using ftp client, then you need to enter the domain/subdomain in the host field (ex: domain.com), and port number 21 (you can leave it blank).

have you created an sql user & database from cpanel? if you haven't, then you should create database and database user from cpanel (mysql database wizard).

 

Datebase Server Hostname - localhost

Database Server Port - 21

DB Name - conflect_thepinder

DB Username - conflect_thepinder

DB Password - *

Prefix for tables in database - phpbb

Considering you already created the MySQL database, I can only think of the password entered incorrectly. Check if the caps lock was on.

OK, here is the error. You are running the phpBB installation script, "localhost" is correct for the hostname, but "21" is false for the Databas server port. Leave this value to the default (give nothing).

You have to check what's on line 399 in index.php to know what's going wrong.

are you doing this with the Xisto installer, or did you upload the phpbb scripts and performed the installation ?We need to know that in order to guess which step has been forgotten.

@thepinder: Hope you installed it by now. If not, then completely remove the files you have uploaded and re-upload afresh and make sure you have database created before installing. It should work.

 

When you get error always do this. Most of the time you will get the answer.
