No .htaccess files?

[sdkudrgn88]

I'm trying to upload a version of phpBB 3, and the first installation page didn't show up at all. (Here is the page: http://centralgroup.heliohost.org/install/...amp;language=en)

 

So I tried to figure out what the problem was, and it turns out that there are no .htaccess files at all. In any of the directories.

 

This is weird. I tried uploading one. It told me the transfer was successful, but when I reload the page, the file isn't there anymore!

 

I've only had the account for two days, so if it's some sort of initialization problem, please forgive me, because I couldn't find any information on it.

uhm.. I think think this is one of the feature restriction here. usually there is no .htaccess file and safemode enabled for free hosting everywhere

We have safe_mode disabled, and we don't erase .htaccess files.

 

.htaccess files on your site seem to be working fine for me. I have setup a test .htaccess in your root directory that redirects http://centralgroup.heliohost.org/djbobRedirect to heliohost.org.

Try logging into your file manager like this and you should see .htaccess files:

 

http://your-domain.heliohost.org:2082/fron...r=/public_html/

Hmm, strange. They are working, then.

 

But then what might be causing the blank page problem? (The page is still http://centralgroup.heliohost.org/install/...p;language=en.)

I honestly don't know. I would have to look through the source code to figure that out. I suggest contacting whoever makes that application.

It's just a new install of phpBB 3.0.5.

 

I'll try uploading phpBB 3.0.2 instead and see if that works. Or, actually, I'll try a fresh re-upload, and 3.0.2 failing that. I found out that my FTP client wasn't uploading certain files.

*bump* It works when I upload it to ByetHost. So it's definitely a problem here. Perhaps it has something to do with the way Cpanel is configured? If that's the case, I don't know what it is.

The given url doesn't exist; your url has ".)" at the end of it. Secondly your url deosn't include the forum folder.

sorry, that was a problem with the URL recognition. Here's the new address:

You probably CHMOD'd something wrong or something. I know for a fact that there are a bunch of working phpBB installations working on HelioHost.

 

Why not try using Fantastico to install phpBB?
