Installation step 3 error – cannot create forum

Hello

I have installed bbPress 1.0.2 today here:

http://www.newlondonsingers.org.uk/blog/wp-content/bbpress

Step 1 & 2 of the install did not have any errors, but step 3 said could not create Forum

I selected options to integrate WordPress (v 2.6.3) which is here

http://www.newlondonsingers.org.uk/blog/

I also have the plugin Members-only installed (v 0.6.7)

Am using PHP 4 and MSSQL 4.1.22

I can’t access bbPress – assume I go to :

http://www.newlondonsingers.org.uk/blog/wp-content/bbpress

which then goes to here: http://www.newlondonsingers.org.uk/blog/wp-content/bbpress/bb-admin/install.php

– says Oh dear!

bbPress is already installed.

Perhaps you meant to run the upgrade script instead?

Please can you help?

Many thanks

I have the same error. The only message I received was “There was a minor error” and “Cannot create forum” Lol at minor error.

This issue is because of PHP4. If your server supports PHP5 you can force PHP5 to execute all .php files. Add the following into an .htaccess file in the directory of your forum:

AddHandler x-httpd-php5 .php

I just tried it and it worked.
