2) i have unzip the file and renamed it as OpenDocMan as bper below.
[attachment=1]
3) i then created the database on mysql as show below with the user and the database.
[attachment=2]
4) i then edit the confih.php an add the following information taken from the creation of the database as per below.
// Eliminate multiple inclusion of config.php
if( !defined('config') )
{
define('config', 'true', false);
// config.php - useful variables/functions
// Database Settings
$GLOBALS['database'] = 'mymalnet_dms'; // Enter the name of the database here
$GLOBALS['user'] = 'mymalnet_dmsa'; // Enter the username for the database
$GLOBALS['pass'] = 'qwerty'; // Enter the password for the username
$GLOBALS['hostname'] = 'my1mal.net'; // Enter the hostname that is serving the database
global $CONFIG; $CONFIG = array(
/**
* Prefix to append to each table name in the database (ex. odm_ would make the tables
* named "odm_users", "odm_data" etc. Leave this set to the default if you want to keep
* it the way it was. If you do change this to a different value, make sure it is either
* a clean-install, or you manually go through and re-name the database tables to match.

That is an error message from your web server. You need to check the web server error log.

it looks to me like your host name is incorrect in the configuration.
$GLOBALS['hostname'] = 'my1mal.net'; // Enter the hostname that is serving the database
Instead of my1mal.net...ask your hosting company what is the correct hostname for your account. Hope this helps.
