My server is running on windows. I tried to chg the following steps but I think its not working:

CHMOD the following files to 666 (ie, make sure that PHP can write to them).

./inc/settings.php
./inc/config.php
./uploads
./uploads/avatars

I used filezilla ftp to set the CHMOD to 666. The command seems ok but whn I do setup, I got the following failure:

What should I do
You could try setting the permissions to 777 and see if that fixes the problem.

See this entry on the wiki for more information: [Wiki: CHMOD_Files] (Broken link, head over to docs.mybb.com instead)
Problem solved. Mine is under windows server. So, CHMOD doesnt help. I called up the server admin to the the write permission. Smile
Of course, I should have realised that. Toungue

Glad the problem is solved however.
