Hello

I installed MyBB and everything went good.
I set the permissions correctly ... <- read this again

but when accessing http://www.sos-it.be/forum/ I get error 403 forbidden.

I CAN access http://www.sos-it.be/forum/admin/index.php
and change some things here


When uploading an avatar I get this page:

Any ideas?
I changed the permissions to 777 on every file and folder and I still have the 403 error.

Does it come from the webhost?
I did a file verification test and a LOT of files appear to be missing.

I took a screenshot of my directory in the ftp program.

post a screenshot of the missing files they could be installation files.
If alot of the files appear to be missing like you said then re-upload a fresh, clean MyBB package.
