I sent a email to IPS, but i dont want to wait until tomarrow, Can someone please help me..
Guest Posted March 4, 2007 Posted March 4, 2007 did you get a forum url or cpanel url? if so go to that url and login with the username and password they provided you with.
Eckline Posted March 4, 2007 Posted March 4, 2007 I directed my url to there name servers, Then, it showed the cpanel, I put my login details, and the login box kept poping up, i tried ftp, uploaded the board download, went to install and it says Can not write to directory: "install/installfiles", please CHMOD to 777Can not write to directory: "cache", please CHMOD to 777Can not write to directory: "cache/lang_cache", please CHMOD to 777Can not write to directory: "cache/skin_cache", please CHMOD to 777Can not write to directory: "uploads", please CHMOD to 777Can not write to file: "conf_global.php", please CHMOD to 777when i try to install it,, whats going on
Eckline Posted March 4, 2007 Posted March 4, 2007 Forget that post up above,Ok this is what i did,Went to my domain, It brought me to a install page,now, I need to enter my database name and other stuff, where do i get this, and what do i do with ftp?
Guest Posted March 4, 2007 Posted March 4, 2007 in your ftp program right click the folders and files the installer mentions and change the write access for those files/folders for all groups to true, that's what's meant with chmod to 777the database and database user should be created in your control panel (usually this is cpanel, I don't know which solution ips uses)
