did you change the name of the cookie? it usually gets confused if:

the cookie's name is: phpbb
and the directory is: /phpbb

You must have uploaded an old version of config.php after having used the install.php script.
Just add at the end of config.php this:


$dbhost = "db.flashbackforum.f2s.com:####";
$dbname = "flashbackforum";
$dbuser = "flashbackforum";
$dbpasswd = "password";
?>


Change the numbers of your database and the password.

Let me know if it works.

goto install.php and that is where you setup the mysql stuff
