Hum,

I've deleted the line @ini_set... from common.php and now the forum works (well I can log, but going into admin, I see more errors).

The problem was similar with set_time_limit:

The fact that these function calls were preceded by @ did not suffice to make php ignore them.

I've just visited the support newsgroup of my ISP and (after quite a bit of searching) I found a message
saying that using  "@function()" would not work any longer...

Changing provider seems to be the next option...

Here is the error message:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: ini_set() in ... coglist/forum/include/common.php on line 52

Hello,

I've been trying to install punbb 1.1.1 but without success.
I wonder if it may be because my provider has limited php (?).

First I had an error message 'set_time_limit undefined' when running install.php.

Then I removed the four lines where set_time_limit appears,
and I could run install.php and create the config.php file.

But now, I have a message 'ini_set' undefined.

Any hint?
