I think I know what is going on..
Hi Sabbat..
I think I know what is going on....your forum posts are being directed into your 12th category..
http://www.1000monologos.com/taxonomy/term/12
If you are using drupal 4.5.x You need to go to
ADMINISTER ->> CATEGORIES
And ensure that your categories are setup correctly.
Not sure how to do that with 4.6. as the forum setup is a little different.
So your site is accepting posts...(I just posted 2 test posts)..they are just not going into the FORUM category.
Hope that makes sense..

Check your forum post type
Check your forum post type workflow is all I can suggest. Forums are are configured in the admin \ forums if I recall.

ok I see ;) XDD.The problem
ok I see ;) XDD.
The problem continue. I try delete and dowload the 4.6 files another time but this don´t solved my problem. :(
I am having the very same
I am having the very same issue. I have my taxonomy and my forums set up exactly the same (I'm using a clean install of 4.6.0) but when I try to post in the forums, the message doesn't show up anywhere. I am able to access the post via admin/content, but no place else.
Any ideas would be great. I'm still perusing the written info, but nothing seems to apply to the 4.6.0 forums.

Living well is the best revenge...

It appears in "Active forum topics" block but not on forum container :-(
So
Here are 3 poor guys waiting for any help...
You'll pardon the delay as I
You'll pardon the delay as I have had a really bad week and am BUSY. Now, I don't run forums on my site, so I will set some up on a test site and see if I can replicate it. As I have to work this weekend as well, there may be a slight lag in my response.
In the mean team, you may want to browse bug tracker to see if any else reported the issue.

Here's one method
Switch back to 4.5.2 (if possible). That's what I did, and I'll just have to wait until the forums are fixed in 4.6.x.
me too! (I always wanted to say that in a topic :)
I have tried upgrading and clean installs with 4.6.0, 4.6.1, 4.6.2 and now 4.6.3 and the forum posts do show up under admin/content, under the "active forum topics" block and in tracker and so on, but not on the actual forum page "www.example.com/forum".
But now for the interesting thing: in one of our three 4.6.x sites it works. And why is this interesting, I can hear you ask? Well, becuase it is a multi-site setup so the site that works and the sites that don't, share the same code and environment. I just can't put my finger on what I did differently. Of the two clean installs I did, one works and the other one doesn't. The third site is an upgrade from 4.5.x.
problem found - not solved
A few hours ago the forum.module was updated and although I did not understand the explanation completelly, it might have fixed this problem. Need to check when I get access to the server and can update the module.
But over the web admin interface, I tried to look around inside the database (using dba.module) and found out this:
There are three tables in the database related to this:
forum
term_data
term_node
The node number of a forum post should appare in the table "forum" (a table for nodes related to a forum) and in the table "term_node" (a table for nodes related to a term, this includes forum posts). In both tables, the node should be listed together with the "term_id" or "tid" and this "tid" is the number of the forum in witch the text was posted. The first forum you created under "admin / add forum" is forum 1, and so on. These forums are listed in "term_data".
The "Most recent forum posts" looks for posts in the "forum" table" only, but the forum start page (www.example.com/forum) requires the node to be listed in both "forum" and "term_node". This is why we with problems can see our posts in "most recent forum posts" but not on the actual forum page.
If you have created a forum but not a vocabulary, Drupal may not notice that the text you are posting should be listed in "term_node" and will list it in the table "forum" only. And in some situations, the node will be listed in "term_node" but not in "forum". Or it will be listed in "forum", but with a "tid" related to a term created under a unrelated vocabulary and not with the tid of a forum. Or something like this.
You can make a node appare on the forum page, but fiddeling with the database and changing the "tid" of the node in both the "forum" table and the "term_node" table to the number of one of your defined forums.
I hope todays update of the forum.module fixes this (and works with 4.6.x and not the head version only).
I've had no problem installing forums
I've had no problem installing forums and having them seen.
I started with a new install of 4.6.0 and now have 4.6.3. The taxonomy module is enabled.
The steps I did to create them.
1) Created a container and gave it a name.
2) Made each container's parent < root >
3) Under each container I added appropriate forums.
4) Each forum's parent is the container for that forum.
5) I weighted each forum as I wanted it listed under that container.
The path to the master list is http://www.mydomain.com/forum
That will give a list of containers and their forums.
Does that help anyone?
fixes available
The forum module is broken (at least up to the current 4.6.3), but there are fixes and work-arounds for the problem discussed here if you are willing to make some changes directly to the database:

I am having the same problem
In my case, I have everything configured as you say.
Forums & Taxonomy Enabled.
Two Containers set up, one SubForum in each container.
I can post forum topics at the Forum, Container, and SubForum level, and no matter where I post them they don't appear in the forum tree?
I inadvertently pressed 'Reset Menus' last night - don't know if this broke something - I am still experimenting, might delete all Forum stuff and start again?
This "fix" worked
Don't know what caused the problem, but applying this fix worked...
http://drupal.org/node/22960
Also tried running the script to re-associate topic with forum, but that didn't work.
Now have navigation working properly.
Forum not working - Same Problem in 4.7 ??
Does anybody confirm the same problem in a 4.7 installation?
The forum shows the same effect for my 4.7 installation at www.soccer-wikki.de (german site only).
I deactivated the forum module and re-installed the forum module again after deleting also the database entries.
Now, I just have one container activated for my tests.
Any comments and reports from other sites are welcome.
A fix would be wonderful *gg
