Topic: Installing PhpBB 3.3.3
Attempting to install phpBB-3.3.3.
Requires PHP 7.1.3+ and MySQL 4.1.3.
During installation phpBB complains PHP 7.1.3 or higher is not available.
The Tux FAQ mentions:
In order to execute PHP7 instead of PHP5, edit/add a .htaccess file and add:
AddType application/x-httpd-php7 .php
If that is the fix, where do I place this .htaccess file? I cannot find an existing one anywhere. And is it simply a file named .htaccess with the single line: "AddType application/x-httpd-php7 .php" ?
I can use a different BB if needed.
Thanks much,
Update:
I abandoned the phpBB-3.3.3 effort.
Installed punbb-1.4.6 instead - much smaller.
Another update:
Cannot get punbb-1.4.6 to work via https.
Loggins are unsecure.
Is there a fix for this?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
