Ok, so I went ahead and followed the instructions to load this. I uploaded EVERYTHING from the zip file into the forums folder on my website. I then chownd and chmodded all files to apache. Then I chmodded the 666 and 777 files and folders in the doc, before finally running the installation.
Im an experienced coder. This is my first bout with Mybb. I currently manage several phpbb3 and vbulletin 4 forums. I mention this just to illustrate I know my way around a server and uploading/configuring software.
Anyways, everything installed, all data is in. I can see everything inside the forum, and in the modcp. but the phrases in the admin panel are empty. I double-checked and then went ahead and re-uploaded all files to ./inc/languages/english/admin/
All files are there, and yet the screen is mostly empty.
Here's the cut and paster:

Any other ideas? I'm all out.
Well, seems the solution is to take the ./inc/languages/english/admin folder and chmod it to 755. That was not in the instructions anywhere, nor in any of the first thread results I found. Took a little more digging. Once I changed this, everything worked.
