Installation Problems in v7.9

The reason why allot of hosts are either good support for ASP or PHP, is that ASP runs well on Windows web servers and PHP runs well on Unix servers.

ASP is written by MS and although you can get ASP support on Unix systems through 3rd party software they often lack all the fetaures of ASP on Windows IIS.

This means that Web Wiz Forums will only run on a Windows IIS web server and not a Unix/Linux web servers.

I have just uploaded another version of the Lite version, if it don't work this time then I'm dumping the Lite version as it is more trouble than it's worth.

There isn't a feature to disallow usernames online, but there is a function that holds usernames that are not allowed if you edit the file, 'functions/functions_common.asp' in the function 'disallowedMemberNames'

Since your last modification.  There is no more error pop out.  So far so good and running quite smoothly.

1. I'll have to look into it to make sure the date format is not stored in an application variable. I thought it was changed in the Lite version, but trying to maintain a Lite version along side the main version gets very confusing as to what files are updated.

2. 30 December 1899 is the date at which ASP/VB Script starts, if it's returning that date then for some reason it means the date is being feed incorrectly into the system and VB Script is defaulting to it's start date. Often these type of date errors are as a result of LCID settings on the server.
