phpBB 2

[senne]

hi, i need your help... I'm starting up a forum for little use ( lets say a forum for friends). I've upload the phpBB2-folder ( http://www.phpbb.com/ ) on a server. Images in binary and text in ASCII-text. The address is: http://users.pandora.be/chirotomsam/phpBB2/


Do you know what i'm doing wrong!

Help appreciated, au revoir!


senne.

does the hosting site have PHP?

I'd look there first. It seems that it has no idea what to do with a PHP file.

Just for a really unecessarily informative answer to your question in case it's beneficial to someone else:

I can tell you from looking at this that, if it's hosted with Apache, the following configurations have not been done to httpd.conf

LoadModule php4_module        libexec/httpd/libphp4.so
AddModule mod_php4.c
    DirectoryIndex index.html index.php
    AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
    AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps

The third line is the one that would make index.php load automatically line index.html (instead of a directory listing), the fourth and fifth define it as a file type so that your web browser won't try to download it, or select a plugin.

These lines appear in various places in httpd.conf, if you're configuring a server for PHP make sure you use a good manual (though it doesn't appear you had admin access to pandora.be).
