no matter what I do I get this message

does anyone have any ideas what causes this and how I can correct it?
so I can play around a little bit . I appreciate any time and suggestions. Thanks

That occurs whenever the load or session limit is exceeded ... if you cannot reach the admin panel you'll need to manually change the limit_load and/or active_sessions configuration variables (in the config table). Set them to 0 to ignore load/session limits (active_sessions is "off" by default, i.e. set to 0). Remember to delete the cache/global.php file.

Consider this is a one off freebie Support isn't usually given for CVS versions.

how 'bout one more freebie

i'm tring to install on lycos and i just get a white screen after filling in everything and clicking install (hopefully that will change by time for release) can some one just post what the config.php file should look like so i can play around wiht it myself.

"phpBB 2.1.x is the development branch of the next major release of phpBB2. It introduces a significant number of core changes to various routines and functions as well as the database schema. We heavily recommend that you do not use these snapshots unless you are very comfortable with manual database work, editing of PHP files, etc. Absolutely no support is offered for phpBB 2.1.x releases, not even Milestones.

Things may well be (very!) broken from time to time, do not post asking when these will be fixed, you'll receive no answer."

SHS` , I am not asking when it will be fixed, i'm just asking someone who has it up and running to post what their config.php look like.

A standard config.php looks like:

<?php
// phpBB 2.x auto-generated config file
// Do not change anything in this file!
$dbms = 'mysql';
$dbhost = 'localhost';
$dbport = '';
$dbname = '<database name>';
$dbuser = '<database user>';
$dbpasswd = '<database password>';

$table_prefix = 'phpbb_';
$acm_type = 'file';
$load_extensions = '';

define('PHPBB_INSTALLED', true);
?>

Change the values accordingly.

$load_extensions?

That's a new one... what's that for?

[psoTFX]

If your server doesn't by default make available the mysql module (for example) then phpBB can load it for you. It only functions on servers which allow user dl().

Ah righto, I was assuming phpBB modules, though admittedly config.php would be a slightly odd place to put it.

PHP modules make far more sense.
