Create new mySQL database with your new domain name and gather all information. Open your FTP then makes a folder name with your new Domain name & inside that folder create another folder with a name of WEB-INF << inside of that folder another folder make 2 separate & name it “classes” & ‘lib” after that throw all your files inside you DOMAIN.COM folder now you can see on that folder your phpBB3 (existing forum folder) & WEB-INF. Then edit your config.php with your new database info and your set. This is only a summary explanation.

How can you move your existing forum to new domain name without creating new mySQL database? I have 2 phpBB3 forum with separate database... maybe I can learn something from you without creating another mySQL database & use existing database to move my old/existing forum just incase
In addition to this... if you have a shared hosting server like GoDaddy.com with 3-10 domain name how can you put it all in your web hosting server? ofcourse you need to create a folder for each domain name.
