I've got version 1.0 running on PHP 4.1.x and MySQL 4!

Whee! I'm a power user, so I had to install the DB manually using the SQL entries (which were for MySQL 3). Those needed to be modified too.

So then I wrote a script to insert about 1,000 members and about 20,000 posts!

Tee-hee!

I may just try that. AFAIK, php3 is still enabled under some hosts to keep the classics
running.

I keep getting error messages.
The config file is writeable by the webserver. This is a major security risk because anyone can change your server settings now by using the install script.

phpBB will not be able to run until this is fixed. On unix systems this can be done with the following command:

chmod 644 config.php

Or use your FTP program to do this.
Switch on the 'read-only' attribute if you are running the script on a Windows machine.
But I have set config.php to CHMOD 644. I even tried "A-W" like it said in the install docs.
Still no luck. Any way to remove the security checks?
