    Hi there. can this be done without installing phpbb3 as I’m also moving the forum to another location.

    Steps I made:

    1. Export phpbb3 SQL from the old location

    2. Import phpbb3 SQL to the new location.

    3. Install bbpress with the same db info where I imported the phpbb3 SQL.

    4. Called the script from root folder of bbpress, but I get 500 Internal Server Error.

    I can see that there are some hooks to phpbb3 root folder.

    I don’t know what is being called there, but maybe I could define DB settings manually somehow?

    define('IN_PHPBB', true);
    
$phpbb_root_path = (defined('PHPBB_ROOT_PATH')) ? PHPBB_ROOT_PATH : './';
    
$phpEx = substr(strrchr(__FILE__, '.'), 1);
    
include($phpbb_root_path . 'common.' . $phpEx);
    

    
// Start session management
    
$user->session_begin();
    
$auth->acl($user->data);
    
$user->setup();

    So can this be done without phpbb3 installation?
