Ok, so I’m currently running dokuwiki on the same computer and would like to install phpbb. I install it. IIS is on the same box and that is given port 80. Dokuwiki is running port 81. I gave phpbb3 port 82 and hostname of 127.0.0.1.

Upon trying to access it I get the following error:

General Error
SQL ERROR [ mysql4 ]

Table ‘bitnami_phpbb3.phpbb3_config’ doesn’t exist [1146]

An sql error occurred while fetching this page. Please contact an administrator if this problem persists.

Any clue? this looks like a general phpbb error so I’ll try looking it up for specifics but I’m guessing something wasn’t done right on the install, I guess a mistake by me?

Hi,

It seems a common php issue, if you search this error on google you can visit several forums out of line :) Could you check if you have any MySQL process running using the Windows task manager? You can check if the MySQL service is running in the services panel? It should be created as “phpbb3MySQL”.

Cheers.
