Can I change the folder's name from fmp to ... let say form2?

Or what if I change it after uploading?

I would NOTadvise that you change the folder name.

1) the install program will be looking for the fmp folder.
2) all the internal path names would have to be changed.

Do not change the folder name.

another thing, when i try to install form, it says:

Could not connect to MySQL server.

I have entered localhost for MySQL host
SQL login, pw n db name are the same with when I created the dbase

Please follow and DO NOT deviate from the installation instructions.

I have FTP my entire fmp folder using BlueFTP to FTP://............/public_html and i can see my fmp at FTP://............/public_html, so why if i run http://www.MyDomain.com/fmp/install.php with my browser, i see "page cannot be found" instead of "System Installation" page. No matter how many times i try !Do you know WHY?

If you have ftp ed the content of the FMP folder in your public_html folder, it's there that you should look for it. However, you should NOT have it uploaded in your public_html, but in a folder of it's own, called "fmp"

Dear all,
i have tried to install formmaker. Without succes. I followed the instructions. But i get the same message as the one before.
This means that when I install fpm (www.natuurfit.nl/fpm/install.php) I get the message: Template Error: set_root: tpl is not a directory.
Halted.
Please tell me what I have done wrong.
thanks a lot
Guido

And now it works.

..David, I've followed All the instructions for installing FMP. after much trial....(4 clean attempts)...i've gotten to the point of completing the install, but nothing i'm trying seems to work...I am entering (as far as I know)all the correct data, however it keeps returning "cannot connect to Mysql database....what am I missing? Help Please.....a yahct in Spain....sounds wonderful!! ....thanks,george....P.S. pete8629******.com just in case

George, it sounds as if you are have a naming problem with your sql database.
When you create the database, what did you call it ?
did you then create a user and then added that user to the database.

If you have got this far then remember that your cpanel will add a pre-fix to the database name that you created i.e.

called it blingbong,
cpanel name pre-fix xxxx_blingbong

That is the name of the database you should enter in FMP xxxx.blingbong

and the same occurs with the username..... xxxx_username

have fun and get back to us if you still have problems.......
