[Orbitalman]

i am attempting to install phpnuke. i have uploaded all my phpnuke files. i have gone to the cpanel and created the Database. i have also gone to phpmyadmin and created the database.

 

 

these are my config.php settings:

 

$dbhost = "localhost";

$dbuname = "orbital2_leader";

$dbpass = "********";

$dbname = "orbital2_orbitaldb";

$prefix = "nuke";

$user_prefix = "nuke";

$dbtype = "MySQL";

 

i try to access my web and it does not load.

$prefix = "nuke";

 

Is that line referring to the TABLE prefix? If so then the table prefix would be "orbitaldb_" wouldn't it?

Did you load the nuke.sql file into your database via phpMyAdmin? If not, that could be the problem. It is found in the SQL directory of the phpnuke archive. To load it you go to phpMyAdmin in your control panel, select the database you will use for phpnuke, go to the sql tab, and browse to find the file you save on your computer called nuke.sql. When you hit Go it should format the database and give you a message that all worked well or an error occurred.
