mysql CREATE DATABASE kokonotsuba; exit I then chowned the script to www-data chown -R www-data /var/www/dev/kokonotsuba And also modified my php.ini for this since the server it was running on was mostly running perl scripts upload_max_filesize = 20M then restarting apache Next, I want to the install script and it errored out. Turning on display_errors in php.ini showed this: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ')' in [path-to-kokonotsuba-directory]/install.php on line 167 I put it into ChatGPT since I didn't feel like reverse-engineering the code and it gave a super convoluted answer that didn't make any sense. It turns out I did need to reverse engineer the code a bit after all. Simply put, you just need to remove the comma after $data[19] on line 166 So change $data[12], $data[13], $data[14], $data[15], $data[16], $com, $data[18], $data[19], ); to $data[12], $data[13], $data[14], $data[15], $data[16], $com, $data[18], $data[19] ); Now the installer will function as normal. This is what it looked like after clicking install. w*rld2ch.net/SorryIDontKnowWhereToPutTheseSoImPuttingThemHereIfThatsOkayAndCatboxIsDown/kokoinstaller.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer" target="_blank">http://dev.w*rld2ch.net/SorryIDontKnowWhereToPutTheseSoImPuttingThemHereIfThatsOkayAndCatboxIsDown/kokoinstaller.png The board then successfully installed and I was able to post like usual. w*rld2ch.net/SorryIDontKnowWhereToPutTheseSoImPuttingThemHereIfThatsOkayAndCatboxIsDown/PostingJustFine.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer" target="_blank">http://dev.w*rld2ch.net/SorryIDontKnowWhereToPutTheseSoImPuttingThemHereIfThatsOkayAndCatboxIsDown/PostingJustFine.png I then noticed there was an issue with the gallery: Photos were not showing up. They still were showing up on /src/, however, I quickly realized that they were converting to .png. Now there is definitely a way to fix that, but I haven't done that. w*rld2ch.net/SorryIDontKnowWhereToPutTheseSoImPuttingThemHereIfThatsOkayAndCatboxIsDown/Katalog.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer" target="_blank">http://dev.w*rld2ch.net/SorryIDontKnowWhereToPutTheseSoImPuttingThemHereIfThatsOkayAndCatboxIsDown/Katalog.png Besides that, everything works just fine. I did have some issues with referral cushioners and quick reply (quick reply doesn't have a post button and referral cushions might be using the wrong sanitation). I was also having a bit of an issue logging in as an admin. I'll play around with it a bit more tomorrow. Regardless, in my opinion, TinyIB (at least at the current moment) is a way better option if you want an imageboard script that just works, although it has a lot less features. Also, here's the ceiling pic I used as a test because I know somebody would want to see it: w*rld2ch.net/SorryIDontKnowWhereToPutTheseSoImPuttingThemHereIfThatsOkayAndCatboxIsDown/Ceiling.jpg" rel="nofollow noreferrer" target="_blank">http://dev.w*rld2ch.net/SorryIDontKnowWhereToPutTheseSoImPuttingThemHereIfThatsOkayAndCatboxIsDown/Ceiling.jpg
