Hey all,
Hope you can help.
I recently added phpBB2 forum software to my website. I followed the instructions to the 'T' and all seemed to go well.
I went to log on for the first time so that I could set the site up as an administrator but when i logged in it took me to the 'page cannot be displayed' page. I used the back button to see if this happened with all the buttons but found the others seemed to work. Thats when I noticed that I was actually logged in. Hmmmmm I thought, I then tried to go to the admin page and start settign the site up but again this goes to the page cannot be displayed page!!!
I reinstalled and deleted my database TWICE (which took ages) and still I get excatly the same problem.
I can't tell if it is something I have done wrong ie some of my hosting details wrong or if there is a bug in the code that I could change???
All help VERY much appreciated

Laters dudes

I don't really know anything about phpbb2 forums, but when you set it up, there would be a place in the coding where you enter the url for the place thats displayed after the login, right? You may be missing that page, or have the wrong url? For example, you may have entered index.php and the actual address was forum/index.php?
