Help Needed Bad
 

Alright, so I uploaded everything to my hosting and am entering the installation process. I created the directory for my forum after uploading(Not sure if I was to to do this) to www.collegesportsaddicts.com

Now I am stuck in the installation process because when I put in www.collegesportsaddicts.com/install/install.php it don't work. It says it has a HTTP error 404.

So, I could really use some help and some possible solutions. Anything is worth trying since I have been working on getting this installed for the past 4 days.

You said you created a directory for your forum? You proabaly need to add that to your path - www.collegesportsaddicts.com/directory/install/install.php

Naw, it didn't work. When I mean directory I right clicked on the top folder on File Zilla cause all it read was a "/" and chose "add a directory" thinking that this meant the URL.

So I put in my URL and it created a folder under it. So, I don't think I was to do that.

So did you or did you not add a directory?

Did you read the manual on how to install vbulletin? Installing vBulletin

You might want to ask these questions over on vbulletin.com. This site is for help on modifying your code.

Look like server configuration issue.
See if DNS is pointing to your server etc...
Also you can use your IP address to install vbulletin.

All purchased licenses give you priority vbulletin support. The fact that you posted here instead of there leads me to believe you pirated vb.

I'm getting so confused and frustrated. I will try the things above. Is there anyway I can give my info to someone else that is very skilled at doing this and still be the admin and what not. Just be taking a risk with that person having my info?

Pirated? LOL, I am pretty sure I am paying the money to have my Vbulletin license correctly updated every year. Mine was a transfer license. I got the ticket and everything from Vbulletin. Got the email to prove it.

Because this is my first time setting it up myself and being 'non-tech savvy' means that I pirated my license? WTF?

If he wasnt licensed, marco would already of posted that he wasn't.

Talk about jumping to conclusions :rolleyes:

MizzouHoopster, it is indeed a dns problem, where is your domain set up with?

godaddy.com
namecheap.com
n4me.eu

Where? If you told us this would help, then we could tell you how to set up the dns, and fix your forums. ;)

I just went ahead and purchased through my hosting program (www.hostgator.com) even though it cost just a little more.

I thought it would make it easier rather than more difficult in the long run. LOL

Well, then you should not have a problem then. I never used hostgator before though. :rolleyes:, but sense you bought the domain off the host your using. There should be no problem unless your spelling the domain incorrectly.

I'll retry once again.

Looks like your site is up now, but it only shows the /index you need to upload files to it. Your proply uploading them into the wrong folder, upload them into the public_html, or whatever folder it tells you to upload them to.

Okay I did that. Now what do I do. Like when you go to my website it shows upload.

However, what should I put in the broswer to get the install.

I put www.collegesportsaddicts.com/install/install.php and it didn't work.

Nevermind, I have brought up the installer now, but I am having to go back because I didn't change the hosting and all that because I thought it said it wasn't needed yet. So, I am going back to that.
