Ok where to start. Ok the site where I plan to setup this Forum is:
http://members.lycos.co.uk/universityforums/

So when I opne the php file from a browser by using:
http://members.lycos.co.uk/universityforums/install.php

The installing stuff comes up. So firstly there are a set of error messages at the top of the installing steps.. it states -

Warning: ini_set() has been disabled for security reasons in install.php on line 27

Warning: ini_get() has been disabled for security reasons in install.php on line 31

Warning: ini_get() has been disabled for security reasons in install.php on line 131

Warning: ini_get() has been disabled for security reasons in install.php on line 137

What does that mean? How do I get rid of it? Is it necsessary to get rid of it?


Ok so the next problem. How do I fill out the following:

Server Root
Forum Data Root
Forum WWW Root

I think I have Forum WWW Root right, but what about the bext two? I've tried everything. What exatctly do I type in those fields. Do I have to make my won folders?

Let me know please. Am very ver new to PHP and forums.
The version I am using is 2.2.2
Thanks

it means you server administrator has disallowed users from using ini_get()/ini_set() functions. using the disable_functions directive inside php.ini.

Ask them to enable those 2 functios for your account, this will allow you control certain php directives for your account.
