The issue was I was using MySql 5.0.51 but php 4. I switched my server to use php 5.2.6 and it installed..
however now no matter what I get this error when trying to join a tournament with any user under any usergroup:

you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

1. Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
2. If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.


The usergroup administrators has Yes to all the options for tournaments & ladders which is the account I'm trying to join on. There is no banned user IDs in the vbulletin options for the tounaments & ladders.. what should the column's value look like for yes to all permissions on tournament permissions in phpmyadmin? I have 1023 for the value after setting the values to all yes and still can't join any tournaments..

I am dealing with the same issue here. I have all columns turned on yes, and receive the same error.

I installed 2.7.2 over it and it works now.

Is it possible you can create a Clan System?

Features:
Clan Leader can create matches against an official clan.
Best out of x matches
Rules Layout
Rank System
An image to represent their team [What place they're listed as]
All Time Player [Base on their performance throughout each clan battle]

If you do create, make sure that instead of having "Users with this option selected have full control over all tournaments."

Instead of that, in a box, have the userID or Usergroup ID do that when it comes to taking over a tournament or clan system. So not anyone can have the right to edit.
