I tried to install it on its own and it shows the NORMAL ORCA as it would LOOK in DOLPHIN but cant log in or cant join ...so thats why i asked and thanks again for replying quickly ...

Ok no Problem ... I will wait and see if theres something i need to do in order for the ORCA forum to act and function on its very own ...

This might be a silly question, but if you just need a stand alone forum why on earth would you use Orca when phpBB3 is free? Orca is one of the ugliest forums I have ever seen, not to mention the bugs.. phpBB has it own community and all the mods are free and there are hundreds of templates.

Of course - Orca can be stand alone

and yes MSCOTT i know phpbb3 is free but orca is alot more easier for me but thanks and i will download ORCA again to see if it works alone.

MySQL executing finished.

I all, I apparently am having a silimar issue in an attempt to install the db.

Problem below:
When I do a fresh install of the db through phpMyAdmin everything goes fine, no error messages or anything.

When I run install/index.php it deletes everything.

So, I restarted install/index.php then I get this message:

Error while executing: CREATE TABLE `AdminBanList` (
You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '' at line 1

It continues loading all the errors, but all the errors point to line 1 in the
v61.sql file.

Now the only reference on line 1 is as follows:
line 1--
line 2-- Database: v 6.1
line 3--
line 4
line 5-- --------------------------------------------------------
line 6
line 7 SET NAMES 'utf8';

Using MySql 5.0
I ran into the same prolem multiple times using MySql 4.1

This just does not seem to work
Can any give any suggestions. I have also read through the Manual to some extent on MySql.com concerning that SET NAME statement and
I do not see it referenced the same way in th 5.0 Schema so I am
at loss.

Please reply quickly
Thanks Tim
