Hello,
Ive downloaded the forum zip. Ive unzipped and Ive set the IIS for the usage of this forum in our local intranet. When I run the default.asp, it says that 'the database could not be opened'.
I havent set the database for the forum. Ive got SQL Server7. Can u pls let me know what tables to create in the new database which Im creating.
Thanx in advance
Cheers

Don't need to create the tables. The setup script will do that for you. Just create an empty database and then update your config.asp file to point to the empty database. Then go to setup.asp in your browser and follow the instructions to setup the forum.

Thanx alot for that Davio. But, Im facing more problems.
I did as u guided. Now, when i run the setup.asp file, the following error comes
str '
Response object error 'ASP 0156 : 80004005'
Header Error
/setup.asp, line 125
The HTTP headers are already written to the client browser. Any HTTP header modifications must be made before writing page content.
Pls help

Ok, it's beyond me what might be causing that error. I was going to suggest to add a Response.Buffer = True to the top of setup.asp, but I realized it's already there.
You are using v3.1 SR4 of the forums right?
Can you provide us with a link to your forums?
Hopefully someone else will have a clue as what is causing that error.

Thanx Richard and Davio,
I went thru the link Richard gave. Im happy to say that the setup.asp is successfully running now.
I dont remember doing any change. I refreshed IIS and ran setup.asp, its working fine. Its asking for the creation of the tables.
Thanx alot to u both. Hope u'll help me thru the end
Cheers and thanx again

So nice of u Davio.
One more question. When i try opening admin_login.asp, its asking for the administrator username and password. Which username is this? Should this be created in SQL server with the administrative rights or in the snitz forum?
Pls help and thanx in advance

It's just asking you to give your admin username and password for the forum. The default username and password is admin and admin. You have finished with the SQL Server for now. The rest of the setup is done via the forum. After you have finished setting up the forum options, make sure to change the Admin password to something else.
