Gotta silly one going on...

OK downloaded the zip file and expanded and Actually read the readmefirst.htm file:

(note: vbulletin 3.0 RC4 here)

ok, on the "/admin/forum" folder... I thought that my "/includes" was the right folder, since that's where my config.php (you know... config.php.new was edited and saved as config.php).

If this is the case, then I get reasonably far by changing global.php to 'vbulletin/includes' for the admin folder.

But then it gets screwy b/c I need to add $dbservertype = 'mysql'; into the config.php folder, else global.php tries to open db_.php instead of db_mysql.php.

Well, it opens alright, but suddenly my database name, server, login, password is forgotten (it's all in my config.php, but db_mysql.php doesn't see those).

Any help would be great!

a) is my assumption correct on forum/admin = vbulletin/includes based on config.php being there and db_mysql.php being there?
b) did I do right by adding $dbservertype to config.php
c) in home lite, instructions reference newthread.php and template.php... don't see either of these in my /vbulletin/includes folder..

Gracias!
