Yup, file not found. That means you put the URL wrong

No thats the right URL. there is also a INSTALL but the type of file it is, is FILE not .php

What you put is the database name...

I'm not sure about PHP-Nuke, but PostNuke asks for these on install, and sets them in the config file...

When you got your hosting account, you should've been given a MySQL username, password & database name or you should have the ability to create them yourself through some sort of control panel - if the hosting account you have includes a MySQL database.

If you are not allowed to create these yourself, this is something only your hoster could provide to you, if he hasn't already.

well then ill just use post nuke

January 24th, 2004, 10:21 pm

yeah I see postnuke is alot easier

January 24th, 2004, 10:27 pm

Oh yeah, much easier. As well as being easier to get into if you've not played around with PHP scripts before, once you do get a handle on PHP, it's VERY easy to customize it, make your own modules & blocks, etc.
