Ok I Downloaded MyBB 1.2.6 Then I extracted to my desktop, then uploaded them using cuteftp to my host: http://my-php.net/

Then I CHMOD'd the Required files to 777 using CuteFTP.

Then I type this to install it> http://froweey.my-php.net/install/

But the installation didnt come up. It redirected me back to the main site.

Please help me. My domain: http://froweey.my-php.net

Is this happenieng because my host? or I go the wrong mybb version which is "MyBB 1.2.6" Do I need to download the previous version or something then upgrade to this one?? someone please help me

It redirects you, probably because the directory doesn't exists. Where did you upload the MyBB files on your host ? In www / httpdocs / ... ?

no i didnt i just uploaded the "Upload" folder and "Documenation" folder. I see that htpdocs folder but its empty.... Do i have to move these 2 folders inside the htpdocs folder?

No, upload/move the content of the folder "Upload" [ That's why its called that way, so you must upload the content ... ] in that httpdocs folder, than go to http://froweey.my-php.net/install/ . The "Documentation" folder doesn't need to be uploaded, its just information.

You copy the contents of the "Upload" folder to htdocs folder on the ftp server.

The Documentation is just for your use only, tells you how to install, etc.

Edit - LeX- beat me to pressing "Post Reply" :p

So upload the files inside the "upload" folder in the "htpdocs" folder?
