Can someone plz help!

Need to check your email to find out why the database error occurred.

edit: I just checked the link to your site and get the database error but also I am seeing 404 errors if I try to access register.php and I would expect to get the database error but get a file not found?

email? why would i check that? do u think i might of not installed it right?

Because that's how vBulletin works. It give you a totally generic message on the screen but sends you an email to your administrative email address to tell you what the error was.

--------------- Added [DATE]1234155981[/DATE] at [TIME]1234155981[/TIME] ---------------

I think you may be missing files that need to be there, maybe your ftp failed when you were uploading your files?

ok, ill check it and i checked my ftp there was some missing files, i uploaded them and one member said it still doesnt work.

Good stuff, now you need to find that email to see why the database is croaking... That's better, now I get the database error when I tried to run the register.php file which is what I expected. Are you on GoDaddy?

Unless you have your email address set in config.php, you WON'T get error emails & having it set while getting errors will fill you email box rather quickly.

You can easily check the screen as well by right clicking the page and selecting "view source" from the drop menu, that will also tell you the database error.

Paste the db error msg here.

Yea im on godaddy.

edit: dont think im getting the emails and @snakes im not getting the error screen so i cant do that. Can some plz do that for me.

this is your error
