Post by Joe »

I was wondering how to go about uninstalling PHPbb forums. I recently had a problem and i now need to reinstall but before I can do that i must drop all of the mySQL phpbb related tables aswell as the contets of the remote /forum/ script directory. Can anyone please help?

Regards

... have you search that site looking for answers?? It may not delete them because they're in use. Try stopping your server, and mysql, and anythign else that may be using them before deleteing them!
