How do you set up phpbb using ubuntu server 8.04

trying to set up forums using PHPBB

My set up is as follows.

-have three websites on the same server

-would like to have an independent forum for each site.

 

Have followed this :

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/phpbb.

 

If I type www.site1.com/phpbb

www.site2.com/phpbb

www.site3.com/phpbb

Doesnt work BUT if I type

YES after following this

https://www.linux-noob.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=3536

 

sites are all working fine, hence adding forums...

ok, i don't use phpbb but i do use ipb and i know for that you need one configuration file which defines the name of the server, its url and settings and so on

 

that's how I run http://www.windows-noob.com and https://www.linux-noob.com on the same ip, two vhosts with two separate forums, but that also means two separate databases in mysql

 

so, have you configured the other two website forums phpbb conf files ? and have you created separate databases in mysql for those forums ?

 

cheers
