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

.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.

 

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.

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?
