Once ipb is installed you would delete something in the setup folder. The installer lock file means that ipb won't try to reinstall itself if that file is present.

If ipb wants you to reinstall something then it didn't run correctly. If I were you I would look for an error log file. I don't know much about sourceforge's hosting space so I can't help you find them.

Suddenly, The forum ran as normal  after  1 hour /oops ,   but now I meet with a new isse  that  I can't 

pass the captcha test to regist new account and it always show the erro msg:

 

The security code did not match the one displayed, a new code has been generated, please try again.

 

Do you know what's the problem?

Most likely an issue with your captcha settings or GD. Try Google to see if you can find a page that helps.
