Now I did all this after reading and reading in your forums... trying fresh installs (including deleting and remaking the database) 5 times in 10 hours... seems I just can't get TinyPortal to work

My server:

Windows Server 2003 SE SP1
Plesk / PHP / MySQL

Someone please help me.....

Thanks,

Do you get this error in the default theme? Have you tried other TP Themes?

FIXED!

Hint: in Windows if you can set your entire install folder by:

Right click on the folder / Properties / Security Tab / Allow Full Control

This solves all permission issues for the install!

I was able to run a completely normal install using this method.

BTW - love this portal / theme - you guys ROCK!
