I am trying to install phpBB3 on my free hosting. When I go to install it I just get a blank page. I looked at my error logs and i see this error

[Tue Mar 11 09:08:55 2008] [error] [client 69.207.241.242] ALERT - function within blacklist called: set_time_limit() (attacker '69.207.241.242', file '/home/tough/public_html/girls/phpbb3/install/index.php', line 123)

What does it mean and how can I install phpbb3?
Thanks for any help!

Not sure if it's the same, but I installed AEF and when I didn't delete the install directory, (I never RTM), it left me at a blank page.
Deleted the directory and all was well.

Its the /install/index.php that I get a blank page on. I can't even install phpBB3. My application for php upgrade has been approved and I am just waiting for it to be upgraded now so we will see if that takes care of the problem if not then I will have to be back here looking for help again!

All I get is a blank screen. Where is this log you speak of?

If you get a blank screen then that is because you have version 1 of PHP. Just login at http://x10hosting.com/account/ and request an upgrade to the intermediate version of PHP (version 2). After it has actually been upgraded, you won't see the blank page and instead you will see the installation screen :).

Give me rep if that helps...
