 There is a problem with the page you are trying to reach and it cannot be displayed.
 
 Any help would be greatly appreciated.

                      | What version have you downloaded, and did you edit the config.asp ?

                      | Sorry, I should have given more info. I downloaded the non-brinkster version and I edited the config.asp to point to the directory without using the virtual path, like you suggested earlier in this message thread.   I am sure its something very simple, because I was having trouble with setting the rights to the directories earlier. 
 Here is a link to the forum so you can see exactly what it is doing.

                      | I have been experimenting with your project here and downloaded the non-brinkster version. It was a great joy to find a forum ready to go that already has all these mods added in. I wanted to replace my current version which has no mods but has a number of members and posts in it already but every time I try to get it to use my .mdb instead of the included one, I get errors. I tried a number of ways including renaming the included file to package.mdb2 and dropping my old one in and renaming it to package.mdb so I was sure the path was correct. It still wouldn't work. Any idea if I can get this to work? My users would like the new options, but would be sad about losing all their posts and having to register again.

                      | You would have to add serval tables to your old database. I will see if I find the time today to uplaod the db-setup files needed to run the modded forum with your old databse.

                      | Sorry to ask this but can I install the file attachment mod in the topic.asp? If I just add the codes from the original attachment mod to topic.asp will it work?

                      | @nixon: 
 Here is the db-files needed to upgrade your old databse, some of them are already there, you either owerwrite them or use the excisting files.
 
 If you already use version 3.3.03:
 
 1.) Upload the files to your forum-dir, then go to admin-options and select "MOD Setup" - a list of addons is visible in a drop-down box. Select them one by one from the list, but beaware that there might be some update-parts among in the list, or there migt be 2 selections a 97 db and a 2000 (default) - use the defaults, if you leave the checkbox selected you will get a better overview how long you are in the proces, becaurse the dbs-files get deleted after you run them, and you only need them this one time anyway. If your forum is already a version 3.3.03 then you donīt have to do anything else, you schould be ready to run your forum. Remember to take a backup copy of your old forum first.
 
 OBS! - If you donīt use version 3.3.03:
 
 1.) Make the db-changes in description above on your old forum files.
 2.) Upload the modded Snitz version and run setup.asp from your browser. This schould do it I think. If not you might need to run the db-files once more. But remember to take a backup-copy of your old forum first.
 
 @suhern:
 You will need the original "mod_config.asp" file also from the required files (Huwrīs Mod Control) - save this TXT-file as ASP-file. Donīt forget to uncomment the parts that have to do with the uploading part. I canīt tell you if it works, I donīt use the upload-feuture myself, only for avatars.

                      | I have uploaded it now to 7host. But I would rather use my host that doesn't work any more!! 
 And it doesn't work. None of the pages load so I can't really get anywhere.
