General discussion of development ideas and the approaches taken in the 3.x branch of phpBB. The current feature release of phpBB 3 is 3.3/Proteus.
Forum rules Please do not post support questions regarding installing, updating, or upgrading phpBB 3.3.x. If you need support for phpBB 3.3.x please visit the 3.3.x Support Forum on phpbb.com.
If you have questions regarding writing extensions please post in Extension Writers Discussion to receive proper guidance from our staff and community.
It probably happens because the install/update directory is not readable. Please check whether that folder has the appropriate filesystem permissions, and if the problem is not that, please make a bug report in the bug tracker.
I tried to install a clean version on my local computer and the installation is stucked in the Creating database schema… part, at 11%. In the base, the table phpBB_privmsgs was created and is accessible. The other tables for private messages are not created (comparison with a clean 3.1.7 installation).
A few moments later:
I relaunched the installation procedure and it went to the end, this time.
I noticed a certain behavior when looking at the search results here. I have not yet made a bug report because I don't know how phpBB is supposed to behave so I'll ask here:
When looking at search results, I noticed that posts in which short posts are quoted are displayed in quotation box. However, when searching for posts where the author has quoted a large post, and thus only a part of the post is shown (because only +-300 characters of the post are shown when using search) the end [/ quote] is not included and thus the text is not parsed and instead of a quotation box you see for example
[quote = "Pony99CA"] blabla ...
I don't remember if this behavior occurred before the use of the new text parser. It doesn't bother me, just something I noticed and wanted to ask.
