I read the Wiki, I uploaded the files, and CHMODed them, and when I go to my page, nothing. What am I doing wrong?
have you started the installer?
http://yoursite.com/yourforum/install ?
For the /yourforum/ part, I havn't defined that anywhere else, does it take whatever that is and put it as the name of my forum?

I tried

http://twinkletowers.freehostia.com/Twin...nstall.php

and

http://twinkletowers.freehostia.com/Twin...rs/install
i can not see the uploaded files here:
http://twinkletowers.freehostia.com/
You haven't upload anything to your ftp server. Maybe you uploaded it to the wrong directory?
Many servers have public_html and private_html, you need it in public_html. (Keep in mind not every server has this)

I'm at the database configuration now. The first picture is my account at Freehostia, dealing with the database. The second is the MyBB Database configuration. What am I doing wrong?
The database host may be something other than 'localhost'?
Okay, I finished installing, but i'm still having trouble.

When I click the "MyBB" link, the page can't be displayed. When I click the Admin CP, there is:

"Your forum does not conain an Administration set. Please reupload the english language administration pack."
Your English language files aren't fully uploaded. Please re upload them.
Okay, now I can see my Admin CP, but my forum comes up with nothing....
