MyBB Community Forums

Hey,

I searched the forums a bit to see if anyone had the same error but everyone calling their thread names HELP ME doesn't help find topics you're looking for so if you know of a topic with the same problem feel free to link me.

Back to business. I am trying to install MyBB forums on a website for somebody so I've registered an awardspace account and uploaded all the files into the correct directory. When I go to the install directory it comes up as it always does when I am installing MyBB. Everything appears normal.

However, when I click next I get the awardspace 404 page (The requested page was not found) and this happens with www. in the url and without. I did CHMOD all the correct files and folders. I also tried with index.php at the end of the url and without but to no avail.

Once those methods failed I thought it must be the upload. I re-uploaded into a new directory and the same issue has arisen. Has anyone got any solutions?

After that all failed I tried reuploading the Admin Directory and then the same again, nothing I can think of works.

What is happening and how can I sort this out?
Thanks very much,
Clarkie

PS. This is a fresh install of MyBB.

Precisely why we really hate people using titles like that. Only so much we can do though I'm afraid.

Can you make sure ./admin/ is CHMOD to 755, folders inside are 755, and files inside are 644?? I know you said you set the CHMODs but I assume that's the ones explain in the documentation/wiki, not on the admin folder/files.

Thanks for your reply, I am currently trying to connect to my awardspace through FTP but it's failing. I will edit this post to let you know the result of your suggestion.

Once again, thank you very much for your help,
Clarkie

EDIT: I connected and all the permissions were correct except the folders inside /admin/ as they were CHMODed to 7xx. I edited these to no avail. When you said and the files inside admin there is only index.php. Did you mean the files inside the folders inside admin to?

EDIT: I remodden the file permissions inside the admin folders yet still this issue has not been solved. I have now switched to another host where it works. Awardspace always plays up for me.
