Hi,

I would like to install Mybb on DigitalOcean using this TUTORIAL

But at the STEP: unzip mybb.zip I got stuck with this error

Archive: mybb.zip

End-of-central-directory signature not found. Either this file is not a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive. In the latter case the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on
the last disk(s) of this archive. unzip: cannot find zipfile directory in one of mybb.zip or mybb.zip.zip, and cannot find mybb.zip.ZIP, period.


Could anybody help me? Sorry for my basic english.

Thanks!

Thank you so much for the speedy reply.

Now, there is no image verification.
Also, this error occurs when I try to register a new user

The image verification code that you entered was incorrect. Please enter the code exactly how it appears in the image.

how can i make it?
thanks in advance for your attention
Did you upload the files into a forum directory? If so, you'll have to move them out of that directory.

Alternatively, edit your virtual host config in apache to point the document root to the /forums/directory. Either way, you will also need to update the forum URL, which can be done by editing the inc/settings.php file.

Simple drag de forum carpet and drop it inside the www carpet? 
Yes, and update the URL in inc/settings.php then in the ACP.
