The forum works, I can see it.
Also note: the board does not load the images, open up the installation .zip-file and rename _fb_files to fbfiles and then upload the folder to <your ftp root>/images

Thanks to everyone for their input. I have researched and determined that the error was coming from the fact that the link to the forum was set to a URL instead of the forum component. The reason for this was that our clients wants to have 3 discussion forums on one site, so we thought that we would set up 3 main topics and set the links in the menu to the different sections. I doing that we broke the link back to the main forum, becuase it didn't exist.

Does anyone know of a way to have 3 different forums on one Joomla install that operate independently? Thanks for everyone's assistance.
