Re: It's a pretty major problem. :(

In Response To: It's a pretty major problem. :( (Louis Wu)

: So: The HBOFF forum runs on a super-old version of phpBB (2.0.x, not sure
: what x is), and the server was just (mandatorily) updated - a new version
: of Apache (2.4 from 2.2), a new version of php (7.1 instead of 5.6), a
: bunch of other stuff. The biggest problem (immediately) seems to be that
: phpBB2 doesn't do mysqli out of the box... and php7 doesn't do mysql.
: There used to be connectors floating around on the web... but all the
: links I've tried are dead (they're a decade old, at least). I don't have
: the time it would take to learn enough about importing a phpbb2 database
: into something newer (and then installing that), and I can't figure out
: how to (easily) make the existing system work with the new OS/tools...
: which leaves us with a dead forum. :(

: I'm really sorry. This might get fixed at some point... but not immediately.

Is this the reason why the front page (literally what front page XD) is missing any news too?
