At you screen said, the destination folder’s owner is user with uid 48.
You can check permissions via ftp. There are good instructions here https://www.phpbb.com/kb/article/phpbb3-chmod-permissions/

The error at your second screen is the error of automod.

I guess the problem is in files and folders permissions of the forum. Please, read this article: https://www.phpbb.com/kb/article/phpbb3-chmod-permissions/ and check permissions. Note you also need to check the owner of files and folders. It should be the same user who runs your apache.
After the fix of permissions you need to install the mod once again.

rfactorrallyepista, what is your php version? At your first screen it is look like you have Safe Mod enabled… You could try to disable this parameter at the php.ini

Also it says, you have no access rights for the destination folder (the first screen, the first error at the second line). So you should try to check your access rights. https://www.phpbb.com/kb/article/phpbb3-chmod-permissions/

Maybe Keekee_all means this problem: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/broken-controls-for-user-rights?replies=1#post-5597315

Hello PhillR76,

If you’ve never installed phpbb before it might be the best practice to install it independently to another hosting just to figure out what this engine is.
Also if you’ll install phpbb into /forum or another folder at your main hosting, it can’t break your live website by itself until you’ll try to connect it to it by wp-united.

So the best practise is make a copy of your live website, move it to a test hosting, install wp-united plugin.
Then install phpbb to a child folder, install wp-united mod. Then try to connect website and forum to each other and debug any problem. Some issues could be in the theme integration module and maybe you’ll have to create new template files for your theme to make look the website and the forum great.
Then decide how would you like to use the user integration: create and integrate accounts for existing users, test login/logout process and user rights. It’s very important to note that phpbb at this moment is going to be the main engine in the user management process.

Well, if it went ok, you can repeat this steps at your main website.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

Hello TheCanadianBacon, could you provide the link to your site/forum and errors from error.log of your site/forum?

<div id=”content”> must not be in header.
Theme structure should be somekind of https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Site_Architecture_1.5
Default wordpress themes are good examples.

There is also some structure of wp loop inside the “content” div. You need to create the same structure in your theme.

maybe you need to change you div ids to default.
I mean the structure:

<div id=”header”>
</div>
<div id=”main”>
<div id=”container”>
<div id=”content”>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div id=”footer”>
</div>

The phpbb forum is placed somethere in <div id=”content”>

Hello. Could you post the link to your website?
Try to check the hierarchy of your template pages of your theme. It should be like in any default wordpress theme. It need to has header, content and footer sections.

You can create custom template page with the css parameters that you need for your wordpress theme and choose it in the advanced settings of wpu.

Well, I haven’t seen the problem like this before. It come only if you have wordpress and phpbb theme integration? That is your phpbb theme? All documentation was at wp-united.com, but it is not availible.

In some kind of appearence problems you can clean all wpu cache at wp-content/plugins/wp-united/cache and chache of phpbb.

In the wpu settings of the wordpress plugin there is a setting of theme integration level. Try to change it and check the result.

Yes, you can change the template of theme integration to eliminate the header and sides of the forum (advanced settings at the settings page of theme integration). You can use any of templates of your wordpress theme or you could create your own template page.

Did you use wordpress plugin from this package?
Or you should manually patch core-patcher.php to prevent white screen.
If you did all of this, please post here php errors from error-log of your server.

As I answered here https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/installed-39-and-now-phpbb-forums-are-gone-1?replies=13#post-5525588 :

Here is patched installation package version 0.9.2.5:
