I cant get the forum to work at all..:(
edited the cinf file and is going to setup.asp..then the errors come..

I am running the homepage on my computer with cyberstop webserver...can that be a problem? i have win xp..

There has been an error !!

The database could not be opened !!
Check your config.asp file and set the
strConnString so it points to the database.
Also check if strDBType is set to the right databasetype.

Couldn't read from one or more tables in the database.
Make sure none of the tables are exclusively locked by another user.

Couldn't open the database.
Make sure you supplied a correct username and password.

The database could not be opened !!

Do you get all that text under eachother on the page, causing you to scroll several times?

If so, you're using a server that doesn't support ASP. Try downloading whereami.asp from http://www.snitz.info and running that. If that doesn't show you the path to the file, you'll have to find another server.

If you're using XP Home, you're out of luck for as far as I know (although I heard it IS possible to run PWS on XP Home, I wouldn't advise it). If you're using XP Pro, you can install IIS (Internet Information Services) and use that.
