Installing the Resource Manager on an existing forum would not remove data.
Which data are you referring to specifically?
If you have restored from a backup then everything should be back to how it was before the attempted installation.

I tried to import the data via the phpmyadmin with mysql file
I have nothing in my forum now, required me to remove all the tables or it wouldn't install
I uploaded the files as the resource manager told me to do. I filed out the information. the next step it told me I had to remove the tables... then it install the forum over again. the data is gone, but I have restored it in a separate database from my back up sql file. but when I change the config file to point to the back up database I get an error. So all the users/threads/etc are gone.
It sounds like you tried to reinstall the forum on top of an existing installation, which is why you were prompted.
You will need to restore from a backup and revert all of the files to their previous state, including your config.php and install-lock files.

how do I revert the files? and the install-lock files?
I only backed up my db so I bascially have to start over with the files?
ok I fixed and I'm back to where were at the beginning of the process. How do I install it on an existing forum?
