Installation Error
Hi. I have been trying ALL day to get gForum set up. Ive tried the windows program and also a manual install.

During the manual install, I get to the point of extracting files, up to

Unarchiving (644) /u/web/ecamty/cgi-local/foro/admin/GT/Mail.pm
Then it stops and wont let me get past this. If you know a way to solve this problem please let me know.

Hi,

Can you try a manual install, and once you have install.cgi and install.dat copied to the server, goto:

http://yoursite/install.cgi?lite=1

That will skip some MD5 checking and may help get the program installed. Also, if you have shell access, try installing it from shell to see what the problem is.

Cheers,

Alex
