Can you show me the exact error as well as the values you've entered in the 1st step of the installation.
Unless you've specified that you want to store both data and web files in the same dir, there should've been 2 directories you needed to create manually and chmod 777.
Also, does your system have safe_mode enabled, you would have recieved warnings about it at the top of the install script.

First of all, my system have safe_mode enabled. As I said, my url is http://gbib.iwebland.com/ and I put the installation file on the root directory. When I execute http://gbib.iwebland.com/install.php via browser, I found belows:
I didn't change the directory structure and click Next button.
Afterwards, I found this errors message:
| Quote: |
Warning: MkDir failed (Permission denied) in /users/iwebland.com/gbib/install.php on line 292
Server Root: The directory you have specified (/users/iwebland.com/gbib/forum/) already exists and is not owned by the web server.
Forum Data Root: The directory you have specified (/users/iwebland.com/forum/) already exists and is not owned by the web server.

I read in the manual that when the system have safe_mode enabled, we can't create the directory manually and let the install.php file create the directory for us. But the installation also can't create the directory.
Please help. If you don't mind, you can run the install.php file on your browser. Thanks.

Got a 404 while trying to acess the page.
Since you have safe_mode enabled, you cannot install the forum into an existing directory. What you need to do is to allow the install script to create the final directories you want the forum data to be stored in.
For example, if you wanted to install FUDforum into "/user/iwebland.com/gbib/forum/"
you'd remove the /user/iwebland.com/gbib/forum/ if it already existed, chmod /user/iwebland.com/gbib/ 777 and run install script specifying /user/iwebland.com/gbib/forum/ as the Server Root.
Once the installer finished you'd need to chmod /user/iwebland.com/gbib/ back to its original permissions, most likely 755.
