Prat's Posted December 11, 2011 Author Share Posted December 11, 2011 No, Still I can't install forum software. Same error message is displaying. And bad news is that even i can't install wordpress or any blog software too! I fear i think i will not be able to install any other software on the site!

Tjoene Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Maybe you can install it manually.Install it on a localhost and create the same databases here and upload the files created on the localhost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prat's Posted December 13, 2011 Author Share Posted December 13, 2011 Thank you Tjoene for your suggestion......but really sorry to inform.....that I am completely newbie in installing any sort of software on server manually.So, it will be highly appreciated if you provide me with any link so as it acts as guide for me to install a software on the server and all those databases creation! Between, I guess you might be completely freaking out with such a stupid question but sorry I really don't know about this stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
