Question installation help

ah brilliant! Thanks - had to enable the legacy component - but otherwise perfect instructions - I'd nominate this for the install guide. Thanks again

follow the step.
1.) ftp com_kunena_v1.0.8_b1166_2009-02-17.zip to your site tmp (example www.mystie.com/tmp )
2.) login joomla administrator control.
3.) click extensions ->install/uninstall
4.) locate "Install from URL" enter your www.mysite.com/tmp/com_kunena_v1.0.8_b1166_2009-02-17.zip
5.) it will start to install, after install goto Menus and click NEW and locate kunena forum, give a title and save. Your forum will appear at your frontpage.

P.S You must meet the PHP and Mysql requirement inorder for kunena to work

When following the above, i get this:

Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in /mysite.com/www/libraries/joomla/filesystem/folder.php on line 392

Anything I can do there? Looking cannot see anything obvious.

Thanks, K

need to check with your host provider to increase php set_time_limit from 30sec to higher

CEMag: check the technical reuirement in: docs.kunena.com/index.php/Technical_Requirements .
You can try to upload the compressed install file to your serveer and install from local directory to speed up.

Thank you!

I am also having troubles. I am trying to install Kunena v1.0.8 on a Joomla 1.5.9 site. None of the 3 methods are working for me.

If I do either the Upload Package File or the Install From Directory methods, then I get the blank white screen with incomplete tables. If I do the Install From URL method, then I get an error that says, 'Remote Server connection failed, failed to open stream: no suitable wrapper could be found. Invalid URL.' (But I can verify the file location by browsing to www.belcommunications.net/golf/tmp/com_k...66_2009-02-17.tar.gz .)

My PHP specs are here: **Link Removed by Mod**

As far as I can tell, they are OK. What am I missing?

I will be grateful for any insight. Thanks!!
