My knowledge is limited, so I am speaking from what little I know.
But It must installed to a publicly available directory.
Hosts manage that in a variety of ways and it is sometimes confusing (at least to me) which is why I seldom use certain hosts.
The way I do it in such situations is check to see if the installation file displays when I enter the domain name in my browser.
So if I upload the install file to the wrong or subdirectory it won't be available. So that is what I am asking.
I'm Guessing that the domain is collegeultimate.net and when When I ping that I get this.
ww.collegeultimate.net CNAME collegeultimate.net
collegeultimate.net A 207.210.105.96
PING collegeultimate.net (207.210.105.96) 56(84) bytes of data.
--- collegeultimate.net ping statistics ---
3 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 2000ms
So it appears to me that you have no files publicly availabe

When installing FUDforum 2.8.1 on a Linux Web server I had no errors (but I had a few warnings) during installation, but like you, after I deleted the install.php file and clicked on finish to log in as the admin user, I received the same error messages as you did. Sure enough, the symbolic links to GLOBALS.php were missing.
Cause: the Web host had disabled the PHP symlink() function.
