phpBB

Basically the entire html directory needs to be chmod -R 777 *

Add the following module for easy of use:-

https://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?t=2292756

The phpbbmodders directory goes into the /ext directory

In order get have files executable:-

sudo chmod -R g+rwx,u+rwx,o+rx /var/www

sudo apt install php7.2-fpm php7.2-xml php7.2-dom php7.2-mysql php7.2-mbstring

Download from https://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/exte ... dd_user_2/
- place the entire phpbbmodders directory into the ext/ directory
- remember to set permissions for this
sudo chmod -R g+rwx,u+rwx,o+rx /var/www/html/ext
- then enable the extension from CUSTOMISE tab in phpBB ACP
