What about phpBB1?

Post by EXreaction »

I am a bit bored today...and I was wondering...where could I get a copy of the first phpBB(well, the final release of it)? I never tried it before, and I want to see what it was like. :P

You can probably fix with with some php.ini juggling.

Try 1.4 first though: Same codebase with a few more features iirc.

It also doesn't work well on php4, if at all.

Heh, ya, I guess it doesn't like php4 either...I just installed it on 4.3.11 and it seemed to work...but i keep getting stupid 404 errors saying that a page isn't found. 8O

Anyone know where a there is a free host that would support phpBB1? Just so I could test it out...
