There are no nuke files on your server, make sure you are uploading the files to the public_html (or you hosts similar) folder
You can get web installers for every version, ther are a lot easier and take out the mySQL and populating tables bit, but you still need to know how the MySQL settings and have the config.php set up right.

i have just done a an upload of nuke to my server as im sure i did something wrong i have been at this for 10 days now god i suck
if you need db name or something let me know
thanks for the help
Right - firstly - if you want to tell your ,mates / the world of your website as being http://www.evenmadgamers.co.uk you will either need to MOVE the contents of that there /nuke/html folder UP 2 levels so they are all sat directly in the public_html folder, or stick an index.htm in there with meta refresh to your Nuke's index.php
The error message you currently get when trying to look at index.php is because there are likely either no tables in your DB or the config.php file is incorrectly filled out.
Place a copy of the analyze.php and conntest.php in the same place as your config.php (before or after you move the files - don't really matter) and post the url's to these files.
You will likely find that conntest.php is telling you that your DB has no tables...
2 ways you can do this - manually by reading the instructions in the accompanying documentation and using phpMyAdmin and the nuke.sql file or by use of a Webinstaller which can be found >here< which does the install of the tables for you.
ok this is what i think im getting stuck on

Your dbhgost will probably be localhost.
You will probvably need ot create a database and a user for it aswell.
ok but what is my localhost is that my ulr or is it the folder that my nuke is in ?
also user prefix what the hell is that
?have made a db and have a password for it
thanks for the help guys
localhost is localhost, thats what you put in "localhost"
Have a read of this, might clear up some of the variables for you

yeah and it helped alot thanks just one more thing i still cant get admin.php up it just comes up with warnings i have run the analyze-zip and it shows it's working with some warnings
and i cant get config up i do realy suck at this stuff
www.evenmadgamers.co.uk/html/admin.php
looks like you don't have all the tables installed.
Did you use PHPMy Admin or the webinstaller?
Which version of Nuke you got here?
In fact - PM me the Cpanel Username and PW
Database Username and password as well as the url to your cpanel.... ths url in your initial post just shows everyone your folder structure on the server and to be honest it is a mess..
Will go and spend 5 mins on it later tonite and you will be sorted.
thanks alot for all the help what has taken me 11 day has taken you 20mins what can i say maybe english hehe anyway m8 thanks again for all the help
