I am new to phpbb. Just installed now, but now I get this "Sorry but this board is currently unavailable." on each link.
What should I do now?
Delete or rename your /install directory on the server.

I am trying to find some guidance on where to go next on the issue I am having migrating a phpbb3 site from one hosting service to another.
I have checked to make sure the config.php file has been changed to work on the new server, as well as the common.php file. I am getting a HTTP 500 error when I try to search for the forum. The main site is working normally, just the message board is having a problem.
Nothing about the structure of the sites pages has changed, only the hosting server. (I downloaded a copy of the website before moving it so I have everything in the exact way it was before, just on the new server.)
Do I need to install phpbb onto the server itself with Softaculous?
Anything would help, I need to get the site back up and running soon.
Thanks in advance.

This post would have been better addressed on phpBB.com support section...
In any cases most hosting companies out there will perform the migration for you for free.
Did you ask about handling a migration for you?
There are many things that need to be done when migrating to a new hosting.
here a couple of pointers for you:
-PHP version in use should be PHP 5.6.x as phpBB 3.0.x does not support higher PHP versions
-config.php might need updating, for example these two fields:
$dbhost = '';
$dbport = '';
-check your error logs in your cPanel as they will reveal the cause of the 500 error
Also, NO you do not need Softaculous
I'll be happy to help you with this if you PM me on:

The php version on the new hosting services server was above what phpBB 3.0.x needed. I upgraded phpBB to version 3.2.9 and the issue was resolved.
Thanks for getting back at me. Sorry for the late reply, it was bed-time this time. I need to connect the Cloud SQL database that I have created to my application that is in App Engine. I tried to follow the online tutorials but when I do apply such info I would get then gcloud app deploy it return a connection error. Please help. Also clarify here: When I execute the gcloud app deploy command I suppose it takes my local file to Google Cloud where I would see the entire folder and files of my project on the project I was deploying but I am seeing the old version of my project while presentation has changed to the latest version. Also last one how can I link domain nam from http://domain.google.com to my app in http://cloud.google.com . Please help I am dying with stress I have been trying in here
Given that you haven't provided any information as to what settings you are using, or what error has been provided it is impossible to know what kind of problem you are running into.
I suggest taking a look at the "Connecting to App Engine" page here. It should answer a lot of your questions around connecting from an App Engine app.
I see two questions here.
1.
I need to connect the Cloud SQL database that I have created to my
application that is in App Engine. I tried to follow the online
tutorials but when I do apply such info I would get then gcloud app
deploy it return a connection error. Please help. Also clarify here:
When I execute the gcloud app deploy command I suppose it takes my
local file to Google Cloud where I would see the entire folder and
files of my project on the project I was deploying but I am seeing the
old version of my project while presentation has changed to the latest
version.
I see your problem here to be with CloudSQL and GAE connectivity. Depending on whether you use GAE Standard or Flex and CloudSQL MySQL or POSTGRES the steps varies. Documentation is quite clear in here though.
2.
Also last one how can I link domain nam from http://domain.google.com
to my app in http://cloud.google.com . Please help I am dying with
stress I have been trying in here
This is going to be super simple, goto GCP cloud console, Navigate to GAE-->Settings-->Custom Domain and click on add custom domain "Enter the domain name you want to link" When you click continue you will be shown the steps for verifying the domain owneship and to point the DNS to the GAE.
Documented properly by GCP folks at https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/standard/python/mapping-custom-domains
If you are using GAE Standard or Flex, a possible result of command gcloud app deploy :
An app.yaml (or appengine-web.xml) file is required to deploy this directory as an App Engine App, check next links:
https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/flexible/python/configuring-your-app-with-app-yaml
https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/flexible/python/writing-application-logs
Mysql and Postgres connection:

https://cloud.google.com/sql/docs/postgres/connect-app-engine
Sometimes it easy share the app.yaml for replicate the app correctly.
I've installed xampp in two different pc and in both of them it gives me the same error running windows10 (both with it). Apache server runs correctly, the ports are dedicated to httpd as it's supposed but when I try to access the folder of my website project to test the html files, google chrome, firefox and explorer show me a message saying: "Error 403 - access forbidden because you don't have the right permissions". I've tried everything that is in the other similar questions here and already gave permisions to all users in my folders, even to the whole drive c:. I also modified the txt files inside the folder /apache/conf/ and didn't work. I've seen that in some questions regarding the same matter, the file httpd.conf is a little bit different with parts that I can't see in mine. Thank you so much.
Finally, I solved the problem learning some more. I post it here in case someone is starting with it like me. The point is that when you install xampp, the program has a default folder where it let's you put your projects, it's called "htdocs". So that you can work only with project folders that you create inside this "htdocs" folder. If you try to create a new folder on c:/ for example, the program will not let you access beacuase of security (everybody could access all the folders on your computer, entering your server). I hope this to be of some help for someone else. Thank you, and sorry for the newbie question.
I have installed moodle many times. But this time when i install moodle all steps are completed uptil update profile. (localhost/moodle/user/editadvanced.php id=2) when i enter admin details and update file nothing is displayed. when i try to access moodle module through localhost chrome displays message "web page has a redirect loop".
localhost/moodle/admin/index.php page is not redirected. i have reinstalled Xampp.
in Apache error log i found following
RSA certificate configured for www.example.com:443 does NOT include an
ID which matches the server name
.
i found solution some where to comment include conf/extra/httpd-ssl.conf but it another error is activated in error log
"Sessioncache is not configured"
. Also i have changed port 443 but it didn't work
Find the moodledata folder.
Inside the moodledata
there are many folders
Delete all from Cache
2.Delete all from Session
Restart your browser.
It worked for me.
Hope that works for you.
Thanks for reply. I have found another solution.
While i was accessing a service provided by Linux server i got message that service has been blocked by security settings. I searched and while searching for that problem i found the solution of both.
https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/chrome/DYk8tSV8qM4
go to control panel, programs, click on java, security.
set security to medium.
Java security was set to high which was blocking moodle application.
Delete the cache and the sesson folder data's in the moodle data folder. It will prevent you from redirecting the loop.
It is worked for me.But deleting the whole moodledata folder is not recommended
Just a guess... but if you are using a certificate, have you tried using https in your config.php?
$CFG->wwwroot = 'https://...'
I am running WordPress on a CentOS server with Apache and Mysql and it was running smoothly a couple of days ago but when I am trying to install any plugin or update WordPress, it gives the error with the exact statement "Unable to locate WordPress root directory".
Any suggestions are welcome because I need to install a few plugins.
This error can be caused by the wrong FTP username being given (not an incorrect password – that would be trapped nicely by wordpress – but the username).
I guess this isn’t something that is going to happen often – moving a server and so changing the FTP username – but I’m glad I thought to read around before spending hours diagnosing the server.
This could be because of the web host you are using. If you are hosting it on a free web host it could be somewhat unstable. If you really want to test wordpress out to see how it would word if it did word correctly, try using WAMP.
