When running under PHP 5.2.3 the usebb system outputs blank pages,
Switching it back to PHP 4 the forum works again.
Is all of the forum or some function not work under PHP 5+?
Is this detected?

Cheers.

UseBB works with PHP 5. I am using it with PHP 5.2.4.

The current usebb?
I dont know what could be wrong. I had to manually install it as well.
It seems like its killed on execution.
could it be an error that doesn't show?

What OS are you using? What HTTP server?

I don't know what could cause this.

Perhaps there are incompatibilities with Windows. Haven't used UseBB on Windows for a whole while, perhaps I'll try it out within a few days.

It's caused because I have
php_value auto_append_file ""
in htacess in the root directory.
It doesn't matter whats in the appended file it stops your forum from working.

Why? - everything else works?

You shouldn't use auto_append_file, the output buffer in UseBB doesn't support it and probably is the cause of the blank pages.

For local host, I'm using XAMPP for Windows (OS/XP)

Quote:

Current PHP version in THIS XAMPP is PHP 5.2.3

And it works fine. ;)
