I can't seem to get past this page. I have followed the instructions and have chmode the files and directory as suggested. However when I click on the "start the configuration wizard" link..I get a 500 server error "Sorry, your request could not be processed. Please try again later" I'm at a loss!!! :???: I also get this error when trying to use the "setup/phpinfo.php" Can some one tell me why this is happening and how I can correct it. Thanks

Thanks! I did what the FAQ stated. And am now able to move further..however I am now getting the follow error message at the top of all the config-wizard pages

Warning: posix_getpwuid(3648667) failed with 'Bad file descriptor' in /home/phpBB2/modules/gallery/setup/index.php on line 22

How do I fix this line?:-?

Thank you

Wow, that's a very unusual error. What webserver are you using?

The quick fix is to edit setup/index.php and change this line:

if (function_exists("posix_getpwuid")) {

to:

if (false && function_exists("posix_getpwuid")) {
