[SOLVED] A problem with the PowerBoard installation

[pcfun]

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?

[pcfun]

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

[pcfun]

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):
