The website linked from the sourceforge home page, http://clubdata2.domes-muc.de/, had been not working for some weeks. I can't find any documentation to guide my install except the 2005 version in sourceforge. It clearly does not help with the current version, as the configuration.php file is in a new place, etc (that doc says it is in the include folder, now it seems to be in .the installation folder). Very confusing.
Any suggestions?
(I think I have figured out by reading the code that I have to edit configuration.php and put a copy in /include, so will try that and see.)
Thanks, Mort

Follow up - thought I had most things sorted or guessed right, but can only get this on opening index.php:
Cannot connect to database xyz_showmembers!
Access denied for user 'xyz_show'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
Is there a guide to errors, or does anyone recognise this? Cheers.

Thank you for telling me, that clubdata2.domes-muc.de is down. It is a database error and I am starting to recreate the site. The most important links are already working.
You can find the documentation for installation in INSTALL.TXT. In fact Installation/install.php should guide you through the configuration steps.
You are right, after creating Installation/configuration.php you have to copy it to include/configuration.php. This is a security feature, so you don't have to make include/configuration.php writeable to your web server.
Please double check your configuration for accessing your database. Have a look at the parameter
"DB_HOST"
"DB_NAME"
"DB_USER"
"DB_PASSWD"
in include/configuration.php.
Try to connect to your database via e.g. phpmyadmin using this parameter to check if everything is ok.
Hope it helps

Thanks Franz.
I have checked those entries for "DB_HOST", "DB_NAME", "DB_USER", "DB_PASSWD" and cannot find any problems. For DB_HOST on my other installations, the setting is always 'localhost", so I have left that as 'localhost' (I am running on a webhost that uses cPanel).
What does the error message mean when it says "(using password: NO)" ? - I have never seen that before when having troubles setting up php/MySQL applications.
Cheers
