I already have a domain - say http://www.mydomain.com - www.mydomain.com - with various pages

I want the forum to appear under http://www.mydomain.com/forum - www.mydomain.com/forum

I've added the forum folder to the httpdocs of mydomain and set permissions but I get a 404 when I access http://www.mydomain.com/forum - www.mydomain.com/forum

What am I missing here?

Are you using a Windows web server with Classic ASP enabled?

Full requirements for the software are on the page below:-

Classic ASP is different to ASP.NET ASPX.

You need to make sure that Classic ASP is enabled in IIS for your website.
