Your phpBB Type: Standard phpBB3
MODs installed: Yes, announcement center.

What have you done before the problem was there?
Just installed board3 Portal

What have you already tryed to solve the problem?
Uninstall, then install again, but couldn't uninstall at all.

Description and Message
Ok, I've installed board3 Portal. Then, when I went to the control panel, I've seen its settings in the column on the left, but when I clicked ANY of them - nothing, just only a white page. So I said - no problems, I will just reinstall. Run /install/index.php, select UNINSTALL, but it does nothing. It says that it is uninstalled, but I can still open the link, the DB tables are still there, everything is working as it is still installed. Only the portal disappeared from the ACP. When I open /install/index.php, it again detects that it is installed and I can select uninstall again, but it does nothing again... if I open for the 3rd time /install/index.php - it shows as installed again... and so on. So, as a final question: what should I do to get it installed and working :roll:
Portal url: http://techn0.eu/portal.php
Board url: http://techn0.eu/index.php


P.S.: I restored from a DB backup, made just before I tried to uninstall, so I am back to baste 1: board3 portal is installed, but whenever I click on any of its link on the ACP page - I just get white screen.

What editor did you use the edit your files? The editor must be able to save files as UTF-8 without BOM. The normal Windows editor is not able to do that.

You mean, to edit the files on the server? GNU NANO.

I think GNU Nano is able to handle UTF8, but I don't think it is able to save files as UTF8 without BOM.
