I tied everything logged in as a Host user, read through the forums, saw that you needed to be a Portal admin, logged in as portal admin, same problem.  I uninstalled the module, re-installed it, same problem.  When I click on the General Settings (as portal admin) , I get:  An error has occurred. Error: Forum Configuration is currently unavailable.

In the event log:

The logged in user is part of a group that does have security to edit the module, both as a portal admin, and as another roll that I added on the modules settings tab.
 
Any help would really be appreciated! Thank you.

Have you checked after uninstall that all artifacts of the Forum are removed from the Database?  Check Tables, Views, Procedures, Functions.  I know that a new install fails without reporting any issues if there are still any artifacts of a previous installed Forum (same verison).
