MyBB Community Forums

i have uploaded the data, changed needed parts CHMOD to 666, and went to the ./forum/install.
now, what I got was this error messege.

[/quote]print_error("The installer is currently locked, please remove 'lock' from the install directory to continue"); } else { $out blah blah blah [quote]

I have tried changing install folder to writable, i have unchecked read-only status on windows then re-uploaded all the files, did the same procedure, and
yet i have the same problem.

Can anyone help me with this real quick??

Does your host have PHP and MySQL enabled?

I almost dont know anything about PHP or MySQL but it seems my server says php, sql file types are allowed.

I am using www.batcave.net for a free web space.

Well, your server parses the PHP file as another type of file, which is why MyBB can't be run. Check with your host and ask them why the server is not interpreting .php files as PHP files.

the host didnt not allow the php, thanks for the help.
