right, I'm trying to install phpBB but it is not working, I have uploaded all the files.

I have got to the bit where you have to run install.php

But it keeps dispalyign an error msg about the database - cannot connect.

But how do I setup an initial database?

Thanks

In order:

the-edc.co.uk
the-edc
[password]
> click Add Domain

Then, as it says, set the domain's nameservers to point to your host's nameservers :)

Unless...hangon....hmmmm. When you say you have "setup the domain", what exactly have you done? Have you got separate cPanel accounts for each of those domains?

This is an issue which has to now be handled by your host's support :)

I expect they'll ask you to order a new package and cancel the existing one, though it is possible to change the domain name for a package - depends how decent they are :)
