Hi I have just attempted to install fudforum on xampp with php5 enabled and the install.php fails with an error in apache. If I switch to PHP4 the install goes fine. any ideas why it has a problem with PHP5 ?
Also can you use this forum with flat files? I have a mate that wants a forum but doesn't have a hosting with database available to him only php.Any suggestions would be great (even a cheaper isp with db support i.e <= £7.95/pm)
Madhead.

Thanks, I will have a go at that but I have now ended up using yabb2.1. (still that is perl so maybe I will switch anyway 
I have attempted to install fudforum with the latest install.php script complete with patch as described. My isp hosting company is using PHP5.0.3RC1 with sqlite enabled. However when I run the install script it outputs the following :-
FUDforum can utilize either MySQL PosgreSQL or SQLite database to store it's data, unfortunately, your PHP does not have support for either one. Please install or load the appropriate database extension and then re-run the install script.
I find this odd as I can run sqlitemanager without problems. Can u point me to a solution or at least a means of debugging what the problem is? I can post my phpinfo() if needed.
Thanks

The forum uses php's extension_loaded() function to determine what database drivers are loaded. So, it would seem on your install this function does not report correctly the status of the extensions that you have.

You need to use the patch utility, patch -p0 < patch_file_name
|
should we patch CVS install.php file, or full distributive install.php?, because when I patch install.php for 2.7.4 (with patch utility) I got the same message:

Archive did not pass checksum test, CORRUPT ARCHIVE!
If you've encountered this error it means that you've:
downloaded a corrupt archive
uploaded the archive in ASCII and not BINARY mode
your FTP Server/Decompression software/Operating System added un-needed cartrige return (' ') characters to the archive, resulting in archive corruption.

You need to patch the distributed install.php. Get a fresh copy of the file and the patch it, the patch only affects the installer's PHP code and should have no impact on the archive.

Did you download the zip file or the tar.gz or tar.bz2 files? Can you try downloading the tar.gz and/or tag.bz2 files and running them. Also, when you decompress those files compare install.php found within to the one you have to see if the two are the same.

downloaded all:
FUDforum_zl_2-7-5RC1.tar.gz
FUDforum_zl_2-7-5RC1.tar.bz2
FUDforum_zl_2-7-5RC1.zip
FUDforum_2-7-5RC1.tar.gz
FUDforum_2-7-5RC1.tar.bz2
FUDforum_2-7-5RC1.zip
they are identical for each other.
but I have the same problem ('Archive did not pass checksum test').
PS
I repeat, I don't use any FTP program, just download, extract and try to install on local machine

I've just tried FUDforum 2.7.5 (zipped non-zlib archive) on PHP 5.1.4 running as Apache module on Apache 1.3 on Win32 and it was able to pass the first step of the installer without crashing.
