I am trying to host a bulletin board using OpenBB. But during installation (after uploading all files to server) I was told that the test (there are two tests, to be exact) failed so OpenBB can't be installed. What I wonder is whether it's because of wrong setting-up or because the server doesn't support OpenBB?

Thanks.

I want to try OpenBB and compare it with phpBB. That's all.

Yeah, probably because it is a few million times better than phpBB.

I don't know exactly, I think php 4.xx. I tried to install my OpenBB on www.coolfreepages.com on which I can install Burning Board (WBB) successfully. Please advise.

Thanks

You need PHP 4.1.2 or higher to run OpenBB.
coolfreepages probably doesn't have the version :(
