We need to see the exact database error before we can speculate about what the cause it.

i couldnt get the error log so i just tried to install a fresh copy and all i get is a blank screen

This page is all about the causes of a blank screen - http://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/blank_pages


When you get a database error, you need to go View Page Source on it and the database error is listed at the bottom of the page source. That is the error I was wanting to see.

Upload a copy of your database to your website then ask your webhost to import it for you with SSH.
