Told install was successful but can't access settings?

If you unzip the tinyportal.mod and look for the tinyportal 09x.mod file and open it. Then you will see the edits it makes to the templates. Look for the edits that is makes in the index.template.php, that is the code that is missing to make your site run correctly.

I have downloaded the tinyportal0.9.8 and in there after extracting is a load of what my system recognises as mpegs, a tp-install which is the install script right over my head that went, and some directories. which one tells me what i have to input? Sorry to be a pain, am not too bad at this sort of thing in the past but this one is a bit too much, can't understand why when i chmod thhose files it wont install automatically then.

Sometimes mod fail on install because you have other mods that have already altered the code.  The code is changed so it is not finding the code exactly like it would on a unaltered file.  Hope this helps.  Also you can see how to modify those files here.  http://www.tinyportal.net/index.php?topic=14195  Also remember to bakc up any files before you change the code just in case there is a problem

There is no need to make it so complicatd

Seems like you have mods or some modifications done on both the default theme and the babylon as it's them that gives the error during the install.

What you can do is to proceed with the install and then use these index.template.php files.
Replace them with the old ones.
Note that this will remove any other code edits in your index.template.php files (buttons added by you as one example)
But atleast you will have TP installed, and the other mods probably have a lot less code you have to add in then TP have.

Just remove the (default_theme) and the (babylon_theme) from the files so they are just called index.template.php

There was one other file also G6 that failed if  you have that one.
