why when i have my ftp dir set up correct and everything works, when someone creates a new forum a new folder is created in the next folder up from where the main files are, the script files are in /phpBB/ so i would expect it to be made in the phpBB folder but it isnt it creates i in the next folder up

When you login to FTP, what folders and files do you see? Do you see the phpBB files or do you have to change to that directory? Try this path and see if it works... /phpBB/
