Does anybody know why i face this problem when i try to install powerboard?
Αποτυχία δημιουργίας καταλόγου "/file/components/com_powerboard/avatars/gallery"
In english: Fail to create the folder "/file/components/com_powerboard/avatars/gallery"

Obviously it's a read/write problem, but I don't know what are your server's default permissions for newly created files/folders?
-
every new folder is created with 755 permissions. Every other component can be installed and created folders and subfolders. Why PowerBoard no?
-
We'll see... I've noticed different behavior on different servers...
-
/file/components/com_powerboard/avatars/gallery
What is file?
-
it is the folder in wich i have done the installation of Elxis.

Did you finally manage to install it?
Only the folder /file/components/com_powerboard/avatars/gallery can not be created or the installation procedure stops there and the files have been half-copied?
Try to delete everything, frontend and backend files and all PwoerBoard's tables from the database (they have a prefix of pb_ after the Elxis prefix). If the problem persists send me a PM with username/password to your site backend/phpmyadmin to check what is happening.

One more question: is your FTP support turned on in admin panel?

Yes. The FTP is supported.

The installation is never completed. It creates powerboard folders in .../components and in .../administrator/components but it doesn' t create anything in the database.

That was the problem! I imagined this from the first time when I saw your absolute path... I disabled FTP and PowerBoard installed just fine. Your server is in mess, you should consider changing host some time. When you install anything disable FTP, you can afterwards re-anable it again. I deleted MamboBoard and JoomlaBoard forums. You also have many components that are not Elxis compatible. You should remove all of them.
Welcome to PowerBoard!
A notice to all: PowerBoard is a component that needs space. Do not corner it in small width templates. Use a second modified template for PowerBoard without for example the right column, or with out any column! Here is an example from Zlatko Dumanic (Croatia):
