Unfortunately your response came too late. I decided to try re-installing the software (after taking a database backup, of course). I found that I had to take all the PHP directives out of the .htaccess file and place them in a php.ini file then I had to delete and recreate all the main directories as the original subdirectories were created with owner="nobody" and were now inaccessible to me.

I reloaded the database I had backed up, but guess what I found? All the messages had subject text but no body text! After a grea deal of investigation I discovered that FUDforum does not store message bodies in the database, it uses a series of flat files in the /message/ subdirectory instead, a subdirectory which I had deleted. I now have a forum where al the message bodies are empty, thus making them totally useless.

Can you please explain who decided NOT to store message bodies in the database? Any reasonable person would assume that everything is held within the database and that a backup/restore would cover the whole forum.

Are there plans to rectify this ridiculous design error?
