I keep getting this following error when trying to use the installation wizard on a new install. I have tried multiple times. I am a newbie here so might be missing the basics. The web host does support PHP and I am using mySQL as a db type. Please help!
Thanks
Fatal error: populate_tables(): Failed opening required '../inc/db_.php' (include_path='.;c:/php/includes') in d:\hosting\myweb\forums\install\index.php on line 255
Make sure settings.php and config.php are chmod (permissions) to 777.
Thanks Matt, yes the permissions are 777.

I used this tutorial when installing mine, and had no problems.

Maybe try starting from scratch and see what happens, meh.
-It says CHMOD those things (settings.php and config.php) to 666, which I did as well, and it worked...
Meh, dunno.
Thanks so much that tutorial helped.
I'm glad you found our tutorial useful!
It's good to know that all that work wasn't for nothing hahaha.

Something important to point out NEXCS-Greg. Your site says this somewhere...
Quote:"myBB is open source, meaning that you can use and distribute it as you'd like as long as you don't change it."
That statement is not correct. MyBB is
not open source and it
cannot be distributed anywhere except on the main MyBB website. I would advise that you remove that paragraph from your page to prevent any confusion.
My apologies. This has been fixed.
