I'll update the guide later, but it deffinatly does work if everything is 777 since I have done many test installs on a box that doesnt have any ftp daemon on it.
Did you also chmod 777 the directory containing smf?

DOH! Nope - I didn't. Thanks for the heads up since I'll be installing another one soon.

Does not for me. I;ve done everything in bthe book. I have enerd my info about 60 billion times and it never works. I've done everything 777. I've played with my path. Nothing works at all!
EDIT: I'm sorry to say this but I might have to switch to YaBB Gold/IPB. At least it's possible to install those.

If this was my first time with SMF and it was like this, I would also would go to someone else. But I know SMF and its much better then anyone else! So dont let a small first impression problem stop you from using SMF, cause its really great.

Installed my second yesterday morning with everything chmod 777 (including the SMF directory) and it worked like a breeze! The only concern I would have if it's not installing for you - is it possible that your mysql or php versions are off? I have no clue if that's what would cause a problem - just something else to think about.
