Mambo SMF Bridge 1.1.1

alphagator:
ouch,

I just realized that installing via fantastico or softaculous does not enable me to choose a database to intal to. Its created on the fly.

Any suggestions?

Kindred:
don't use those installation methods?

get the installation pack from downloads.simplemachines.org
upload to your server, extract files and run install.php

alphagator:
Im a bit of a newb when it coms to that. I can download the app and upload to my server. do I upload to a directory under www root such as alphaomegatheta.com/SMF and then run the installer from that location?

Also do I need ssh access to extract and execute the install.php? And if so, using ssh to run the inatller will produce menu options for me durring install process?

Thats why guys like me rely on fantastico and softaculous.

sorry for so many questions.

Kindred:
no ssh access needed.

upload to a directory (yes, SMF will work just fine). That will be your forum directory and url
extract (you can do that usually directly in cpanel file manager)
navigate your web browser to yoursite.com/SMF/install.php

alphagator:
OK cool, Im gonna try this later and will let you know how it goes

just to review, it should install to same database as mambo with same database user? After which the sql erros should go away and the bridge should config?
