When you follow this tutorial, your forum URL will be:

Code: 
*yourname.x10hosting.com/forum
But when you visit, *yourname.x10hosting.com, you get a directory listing because you had deleted the index.html at the beginning. So u can create your own webpage and name it as index.html using any html editors and upload it to the public_html folder using your FTP Client. Or if not you can just login to your cPanel and setup a redirect.

1. Copy the below PHP code text and save it to a file named "eval.php". Upload this file to the home directory of your server
PHP: 
<?php
$string = 'cup';
$name = 'coffee';
$str = 'This is a $string with my $name in it.';
eval("\$str = \"$str\";");
echo $str;
?>

2. Access that file by typing it address(eg: *graphicslounge.elementfx.com/eval.php )

You should be able to read the following text:
This is a cup with my coffee in it.
Click to expand...

If you are NOT able to read it, it probably means that eval() function has been disabled(it is sometimes disabled for safety purposes).

If you are able to read it, then you may need to replace the global.php file. Try uploading it from the "upload" folder in the extracted archive.

^ you wont get the complete control of forum files. So you are limited. Forumotion will place their google ads in ur forums which looks ugly. But where as installing a forum in ur webspace / server gives u the max control over the board. If you feel URL is wierd to share, shorten it using www.co.cc and redirect it.

1. The first error you get is because the hosting company has disabled the eval() function on their servers.
2. The second error is because sending emails through PHP on their servers is also disabled. You may be entering incorrect username and/or password. Due to this, the MyBB software is trying to send and email to the administrator about it. This is why you get the error.

^yes, You will not be able to host MyBB on x10hostng because every script of theirs uses eval() function.

I am not sure if it will run phpBB smoothly.

You can get more help from their support forums.

^Had you used the same directory for installing phpBB in which you also intalled MyBB? Did you delete the MyBB before installing phpBB

and btw,1234.x10hosting.com ain't working!

I guess x10hosting.com is having a lot of problems these days. that blank php page is probably bcos of a low memory limit for php files...

try other free webhosts here www.freewebhostingtalk.com


@rohan
he might have used that '1234' just for example :D :p

300 MB is way more than enough, but maybe CPU and RAM usage cause the trouble as these forum packages are very resource intensive.
