I need some definate answers on a few questions i hope someone can help me.
My enviroment is
Windows 2k server, SP4
latest PHP installer
Latest My SQL installer
latest Phpbb package
Personally Hosted
I have tried searching through the phpbb and Mysql forums but have not found this specific error.
The default database to my understanding Mysql creates is called
ibdata1
====
This is the output from the Mysql --console when running for the first time.
====
InnoDB: The first specified data file .\ibdata1 did not exist:
InnoDB: a new database to be created!
041029 7:57:10 InnoDB: Setting file .\ibdata1 size to 10 MB
InnoDB: Database physically writes the file full: wait...
041029 7:57:11 InnoDB: Log file .\ib_logfile0 did not exist: new to be created
InnoDB: Setting log file .\ib_logfile0 size to 5 MB

InnoDB: Doublewrite buffer not found: creating new

Version: '4.0.21-debug' socket: '' port: 3306 Source distribution
=====
From the above i determined that the database was created, am i wrong?
=====
The install page of Phpbb has no problem with this as far as i can see however when i enter the required data into the fields and click install i am presented with the following error.
An error has occurred during installation
An error occurred trying to update the database
Can't create/write to file '.\ibdata1\phpbb_auth_access.frm' (Errcode: 2)
I have visited the IRC channel for Phpbb and was told that Error 2 is folder/file not found, which leads me to ask the question, is it saying that it cannot access tables in ibdata1, or is a dir ibdata1 that it cannot access.
I have set everything up regarding permissions for folder access.
Thats the problem, as of now
Thanks
