Hi, it's the first time i use the fudforum and want to know more about the installation on Windows 2000 Server system.
Please help to find out the fastes and easiest way for installation. Tell me what to change in install.php for Windows use and which user rights given to the files and folders.

Many thanks for any comments to this.

Best regards, Dirk

Installation on a win32 system is very easy and not at all different from a unix based install. In fact on win32 you generally will have permissions to create folders by default, so in most cases you just simply run the installer and tell it where to install the forum. if you do get permissions error, make sure that the folders where the forum is being installed is writable by the web server.

Hmm.. sorry,
after the first run off install.php it comes up with following entries:
Server Root
The path on the server where the browseable files of the forum (*.php) will be stored.
Forum Data Root
The path on the server where the NON-browseable files of the forum will be stored.
Forum WWW Root
This is the URL of your forum, and should point to the forum's front page. This is also the URL people will need to use to get to your forum.

Hrm, well the 1st step after you click submit is the decompression of the forum files onto disk. From your error it seems like this is taking longer then your CGI settings allow, have you tried raising the timeout?

Installer comes in two forms, compressed and uncompressed try to download the uncompressed version and see if that works.
