Is A Domain Name Needed Before I Get A Forum Up And Running by Nobody: 6:01pm On Nov 16, 2008
Hello webmasters

I downloaded the snitz forum and decided to configure it on my localhost. But all I get is a message,

Database Setup,

Your strDBType is not set, please edit your config.asp
to reflect your database type.


I read the readme file and still I am stuck. Is a domain name needed before I get a forum up and running? Cant I test the workability of the forum on my localhost?

All these questions are running through my mind and I need help urgently.
