You need to enter the requested information, then follow the instructions. phpBB can't figure out where the database is without your help.
Log into your site's control panel and look for your mySQL database. You need one set up with both a database name and a user.
If you're still having trouble, ask your host for help.

That's a normal step in the install. You need to delete the "install" and "contrib" folders that are in the "forum" directory.

This is the message I see when I click on that link:
Please ensure both the install/ and contrib/ directories are deleted
So I take it you are still working with PHPBB? (I was confused on that from your message above). If that is the case, you need to delete those two directories...
