    this error indicated that you modified the SQL statement in the page.

    Did you modified any of the .php file before you upload?

  2. Nope, didn't touch a thing.
    Maybe I should delete it all from the site and reload it?

    We have tested installing PHPBB and had no problem.

    I think it may be a good idea to remove everything and start from scratch.

  4. Hey
    Has anyone else installed phpbb on their site hotsed with discountasp.net?
    I've uploaded the files into my site (FTP'd to FP) and they all look OK
    BUT, when I try the install I just get an error which reads

    [MySQL][ODBC 3.51 Driver][mysqld-4.1.14-standard-log]You have an error in
    your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server
    version for the right syntax to use near 'TRANSACTION' at line 9

    I have no idea what that means! On the phpbb install page the fields read as follows and I have inserted the answers to the right of the fields as shown.

    Default board language: English
    Database Type: MySQL 3.x
    Choose your installation method:Install

    Database Server Hostname / DSN: websitename_mysqlConn
    Your Database Name: MYSQLDB_106036
    Database Username: ok with this
    Database Password: ok with this
    Prefix for tables in database: phpbb_

    Admin Email Address:eek:k with this
    Domain Name:eek:k with this
    Server Port: 80
    Script path:/forum/
    Administrator Username: ok with this
    Administrator Password: ok with this
    Administrator Password: ok with this

    Does this look OK? I'm getting very frustrated with this but I'm sure it can be installed correctly if only I knew what the heck I was doing :)

    If anyone has already installed this board I'd very much appreciate your help.

    Thank You and if you need any more info. I'll get it right to you.

    Mark
