Fatal error when installing

(1/3) > >>

Hey, this board is great but can't figure out how to install.  I get the following error:

Fatal error: Failed opening required '/var/www/html/smfinstalldir=/var/www/html/smf/Settings.php' (include_path='.:/usr/share/pear') in /var/www/html/smf/install.php on line 648

The chmod settings for the Settings.php file are set to 777.  I haven't seen any other posts but any help would be appreciated.

Please help. I'd love to get this thing up.

Thanks

It looks like the paths in Settings.php are wrong.  Please look for:

installdir=/var/www/html/smf

In the Settings.php file, and quote the entire line.  I will then be able to tell you what to change to get it to work.

I did not find "installdir=/var/www/html/smf" within the install.php file. 

Is that where it's supposed to be located?

[Unknown]:
No, Settings.php is where it is being reported as located.  Like I said, something is set incorrectly.

I'm sorry, is this what you meant: 

$boarddir = "/var/www/html/smf";

Also, my $boardurl is my ip address. That's ok isn't it?
