Has anyone installed PHPBB on their Raq?

I have a Raq4i and I want to make sure it works ok.

Yes...I have installed it on several raqs. All you really need is php and mysql. Let me know if you need help.

Thanks... I appreciate it.

When you install it does it cover ALL domains on your raq or can you setup your BB on each of your domains?

Well, if you are asking about phpbb the forum software.....I install it on any of my client's domains that request it. Forums/boards are different, and based on different ideas, so I dont really foresee a situation where one installation will be for ALL the domains on the server. A client that has an automobile forum will have different forums from one that uses phpbb say for tech support.

OK... I understand now. Thanks for the reply.

OK... now I installed MySQL using the pkg file from cobalt.

I am trying to install PHPBB. It says that I need to have a database ready.

How do I go about creating a database?

Did you install phpmyadmin to help you administer your databases? If you did, just log on to phpmyadmin and create a database. Just a name of a database. If you dont have phpmyadmin installed, just logon to MysQL. Type:
create database blabla

Then during your phpbb install: The name of your host will be "localhost"
database name will be "blabla"
the name of the user who has access to the database and the password. (the user name with which you used to create the database blabla). The program will now populate the database for you.

Where can I get phpmyadmin?

I think I am moving along now.
