Cant install photopost

[mattfox27]

So im trying to install photopost on my own webserver i host from my business. I have PHP and MySql but when i try to run install.php i just get a 500 error. I can install the forum software no problem. I mean do i have to upload the photopost software into the forum directory or do you keep it a seperate directory? I mean is it like installing a forum hack where you have to install files into the directories in the forum or does it run as a seperate thing? I have GD enabled everything looks good i don't get it.

You would install the photopost unzipped files in its own directory anywhere you wish

The install instructions are here. 500 error is the most generic error on a server and the server error logs usually have a more precise error but try removing the .NEW extentions on the end of the config php files in the main photopost directory.
