phpBB

January 27th, 2005 · by map · No Comments

Whew, this thing is a challenge.

I’ve got PHP5 and MySQL 4.0 installed on the Cube. Due to the (apparently) bleeding-edge version of PHP I’m running, I have to install a number of changefiles for phpBB2.0. As if that weren’t enough, I’m having some issues figuring out how much I need to do to the database phpbb needs during its install. Do I need a user table? Do I just need a blank database? Who knows. This’ll be a good test of phpbb’s support.

I’m not even sure what I’ll use the bb for if I ever do manage to get it installed. Could be I’d take all the computer talk out of the blog and move it there so as to better keep track of the issues I have with installs and configurations. There are all sorts of possibilities.
