This is a screenshot showing where I put the files from EasyMod. There Are still 3 files left as you can see at the bottom...not sure if that is right, but I'm sure if it's not someone will slap me.

Ok, I made a forum with a free forum hosting site that uses phpBB. Just recently it was been transferred to the new upgraded server so I have full access to the admin panel. I can access everything about this board thru the server, and I went to install EasyMod in there. I DO NOT have phpBB installed on my computer, it is all on the server. I went into the admin folder on the server for my site, made a mod folder because there wasn't one, then made an EasyFolder in that one. I do have SubSilver installed on that board, but it is NOT the default. I am using AcidTech Blood as the default. I noticed that the files I copied from the Easy Mod zip are both in the public.html (admin) folder as well as the www (admin) folder. So far though, I don't see anything in the admin cp on my forum after installing the mod. Any help would be great and feel free to ask me stuff because I am fairly new with all of this and would really like to install some much needed mods to the forum.

Re: Transfer
Did you execute easymod_install.php after uploading the files ?
Re: Transfer
I double clicked on the 'easymodinstall.php file that was in there (the very bottom file you see), and this is what I got:

Re: Transfer
The folder should be called mods not Mods.
And you don't double click the install file you go to that address in your browser.
yoursite/admin/mods/easymod/easymod_install.php

Re: Transfer
Ok, I fixed the Mods file to mods...I tried to get into it like you had mentioned as in : http://www.the name of my site.net/admin/mods/easymod/easymod_install.php and all I got was a 404 error page of my server I use. Sorry to be such a dork, but I am totally lost.

Re: Transfer
Everything is CaSe sensitive.
Try
admin/mods/EasyMod/easymod_install.php
which is how you have it although I had an idea it should be easymod (lowercase).
Yes I just checked my server, rename that to lowercase too and then do the original link I said.

Re: Transfer
I changed everything now, all the folders are lower case. Again I typed in http://www.myforum.net/admin/mods/easym ... nstall.php and I got that same 404 error.
This is what I got:
CRITICAL ERROR: the file 'admin/mods/easymod/em_includes/em_ftp.php' could not be found. Please, make sure EasyMOD has been uploaded under the admin/mods/easymod/ directory of your phpBB installation.
*sighs* I think I need a beer. Murphy seems to love me today.

Re: Transfer
It's in the right place now because you can see the install file here
.net/admin/mods/easymod/
You just have to be logged in as the admin to run it.

Re: Transfer
I am in my admin cp on my forum, and I am the only one who has access to cPanel on the server. Still getting that same message. Is there something I am missing? I don't see any mod button in my admin cp on my forum, and I am in the cPanel where I downloaded the EasyMod.
Re: Transfer
Help, anyone?!! Please? I am really stuck on this and would love to get this working. I am logged into my forum as an administrator, and I can also get into the database and see tables thru the phpmyadmin in cPanel. Why can't I get the installer to run?
