vBulletin vs Apache permissions + Addon Domain / CPanel = wtf?!
 

Hi,
- Bought domain name, pointed their DNS servers to my web hoster.
- Created in cPanel an add-on domain pointing to my forum directory
- Bought a vb5 license, downloaded the files.
- Created the database in cpanel with random username and very complex password
- I followed these instructions to the letter and re-checked the work:
- https://www.vbulletin.com/forum/entr...etin-5-connect
- Uploaded files
- Tried to run http://domain.com/install.php
- Permission denied
- Tried applying 755 perms recursively to the forum dir
- Even tried (for a sec) 777 on install.php, same 'permission denied' message
- My buddy said it's probably an apache issue but it JUST worked with an install of SMF I tried out.

Any clue what's going on here?
