I am required to unzip the data file locally that came with the nextBBS download package. After renaming to a .zip, it is now asking for a password. Does anyone have any idea what that password might be?

 

Thanks

Just tested with winrar, didn't ask me for a pass...

Greetz.

You can do it if you really want it... - - - see my testforum (0.5.3)

Apologies for the newbie questions, just got this message;

Enter the name of an existing database as well as the name and password
of a user who has create privileges on this database.
The prefix will be used to prefix all your table's name.

Can anyone point me in the right direction here, in the simplest of terms?

 

thanks very much

Oh, you need to configure a database in your control panel.
Do you have a web host of are you self-hosting?
