    hello,
    i have a slight problem with installation. maybe i'm misisng something.
    i extracted the tarball and pointed to the that dir with browser. i got the config.php which i copied to that dir. after reloading that site (to get to configuration) i get this error:

    DB Error: no such table
    select varname, varvalue from phpbt_configuration [nativecode=Table 'smr_bug.phpbt_configuration' doesn't exist]

    of course it's not there couse no1 created it. am i suppose to add it on my own? i found the db dumb but it has all the constants that are used in config. so i assume some script puts it in for me. but which one?

    SPOCK, too lazy to look into the scripts.

      Well, install.php (the script where you entered the database name, admin email, etc.) is supposed to create the tables in the database before giving you the config.php script.  Did you create the database before running the install script?
