Do you have to edit your bb-config file before uploading and visiting the url? I followed the steps and didnt see that listed on the “Quick Instructions” page.

I get the following error:

Warning: main(/homepages/0/d87087146/htdocs/bbpress/bb-includes/wp-functions.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /homepages/0/d87087146/htdocs/bbpress/bb-settings.php on line 72

I did edit my bb-config.php before installation, but I’m not sure if the installer needs that any more (it might be smart enough to write the file these days). There’s nothing in there that you should have edited that would cause this problem anyway (other than the BB_PATH which is after the *Stop Editing* line, near the bottom.)

Looks like you installed the latest 0.9.0.2 version. That’s good.

It looks like not all the files are present though. Do you have a bb-includes directory with a wp-functions.php file in it? I do and I did not get that error.

I would just verify that all the files were uploaded properly. First check for the existence of a bb-includes directory with a wp-functions.php file in it. The error is saying that file is not there.
