The images are not showing? Have you configured the "forumLink" property in WEB-INF/config/SystemGlobals.properties? don't forget that, depending of how you configured the Tomcat's context, you must add a slash ( / ) to the end of the url.. for example, let say you instaled jforum at

http://localhost:8080/JForum-RC3

the "forumLink" property must be set to

http://localhost:8080/JForum-RC3/

note the "/" at the end. This will solve the images problem.

Moreover, I don't recomend you to use rc2, since you can get errors that are fixed in rc3.1

In the admin panel. There are sections to do this. After creating the categories and forums, you must give access rights to the groups. Go the group administration and click on "Permissions". Somethings will be shown ad "Allow All", but you must click "Save" anyway, in the first time.

Please read carefully this post:

there I describe how to access the admin page, like the default username and password.

I think I know what's the problem. Go to the Groups and edit each groups Permissions. Just save, don't change anything.
