Why in the world would you put bbPress inside of phpBB? Just pick one already!
2. bbPress allows you to move the bb-config.php file outside of your document root for security purposes just in case PHP does something weird.

I didn't - my config was named bb-config.php. It turned out the problem was that I was installing bbpress into a subdirectory of my phpBB forums, and it was looking at the config.php for phpBB. I don't think that's right. Here was my directory structure:

  • /config.php (for phpBB)
    • /bbpress/
      • bb-config.php
      • bb-admin/, etc

When I renamed my phpBB config.php to config2.php, I was allowed to proceed with installation.
