It told me to copy portal/root/umil

to umil.

Where should that folder have gone?

That's the correct path if that folder is in your forum's root folder.

What is with the file it mentions, /includes/acp/auth.php?

There's no such file in root/includes/acp/auth.php.

In root/includes there's only two folders, acp and trim_message.

In the acp folder there's only a folder called info. In that, there's only acp_portal.php.

I'm missing a file, it seems.

It's not in the original .zip file, either.

Apparently I'm missing this file: auth.php.

Can you point me to where I can obtain it?

Where is the rest of your fourm and where did you copy the portal files?

If the files you mentioned is really all you have then you are obviously missing phpBB. :?

http://www.rememberthebalrog.org is the forum. I copied the files as instructed. The portal files were copied from portal/root to the places I was told to copy them. I appear to be missing a file. The forum is working, the portal is not.

Code: Select all

http://www.rememberthebalrog.org/install/index.php 404
http://www.rememberthebalrog.org/umil/umil.php exists
http://www.rememberthebalrog.org/includes/acp/auth.php 403 & 404
I'm not sure why you'd be missing that file. You might want to contact the phpBB support for that. AFAIK this file should be needed for permission checks. :?

Additionally the template files of your current style are outdated.

Well, what can I do about that? I've updated to the latest version? Is there not a simple way of doing this? It seemed simple but has turned into a total nightmare.
