So, where's the bbPress? I did find this: <a href="http://areamom.com/test/bbpress/" rel="nofollow">http://areamom.com/test/bbpress/</a> which results in this error: <pre><code>Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in /home/areamomc/public_html/test/bbpress/config.php on line 29</code></pre> That's right after the mod_rewrite line in the config. Maybe you have an extra single quote there or you forgot the semi-colon in your config? Oh yeah, check this: <code>$bb->mod_rewrite = false</code> <-- no semi-colon. That means this you should add the semicolon to the mod_rewrite line line and then this line should be changed: `$bb->uri = 'http://www.areamom.com/test/bbpress'; spacecat4 on "Getting "already installed error" on fresh install" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/getting-already-installed-error-on-fresh-install#post-11999 Thu, 15 Nov 2007 14:44:06 +0000 spacecat4 11999@http://bbpress.org/forums/ Hi, I am running a WP site and trying to install BBpress, but when I run the install.php file, I keep getting the "already installed" error. Here are some things I've already tried: I created a new test directory and installed a fresh WP out of box, and then tried installing BB press--same error I checked my databases--the only two I have are my two Word Press DB's none of which seem to have any "bb_" references to them. Any other suggestions? Thanks in advanced! Here is a copy of my config.php file that I am using in my test directory: <?php // ** MySQL settings ** // define('BBDB_NAME', 'areamomc_wrdp2'); // The name of the database define('BBDB_USER', 'areamomc_wrdp2'); // Your MySQL username define('BBDB_PASSWORD', '**************'); // ...and password define('BBDB_HOST', 'localhost'); // 99% chance you won't need to change these last few define('BBDB_CHARSET', 'utf8'); // If you are *upgrading*, and your old config.php does define('BBDB_COLLATE', ''); // not have these two contstants in them, DO NOT define them // If you are installing for the first time, leave them here // Change the prefix if you want to have multiple forums in a single database. $bb_table_prefix = 'bb_'; // Only letters, numbers and underscores please! // The full URL of your bbPress install $bb->uri = 'http://www.areamom.com/test'; // What are you going to call me? $bb->name = 'Area Mom Forums'; // This must be set before you run the install script. $bb->admin_email = '*********'; // Set to true if you want pretty permalinks, set to 'slugs' if you want to use slug based pretty permalinks. $bb->mod_rewrite = false // The number of topics that show on each page. $bb->page_topics = 30; // A user can edit a post for this many minutes after submitting. $bb->edit_lock = 60; // Your timezone offset. Example: -7 for Pacific Daylight Time. $bb->gmt_offset = -5; // Change this to localize bbPress. A corresponding MO file for the // chosen language must be installed to bb-includes/languages. // For example, install de.mo to bb-includes/languages and set BBLANG to 'de' // to enable German language support. define('BBLANG', ''); // Your Akismet Key.

The problem is, I have never installed BBPress. I went to MySQL after I got the error the first time, made a database for BB called "bbpress" but still get the error (even though the database is new, fresh and entirely empty). What's up?
