If you have problems try a search on this forum. Loads of questions have been asked, many more than once ;)
thanks...
another question..
i downloaded the installation .zip... unzipped that..
hmm.. how can i open the "install.php?"
must it be uploaded to the server first before i can tweak?
thks
There's an instruction file packed in the zip. Basically, you'll upload everything to the server, chmod specific files to the appropriate values, create the database for SMF, and then point your browser to www.yourdomain.com/folder/install.php. And then go from there. I highly suggest your read the installation guide, though, as it gives you a thorough explaination of each step.
