phpBB 3 Hosted on iPhone Server

August 2, 2010

Thanks to the new jailbreak out there, my iPhone 4 has been successfully jailbroken. Just like a typical nerd, I have been playing around with all of the cool new possibilities that are now open to me.

One of my “coolest” things that I’ve done so far is install a full-fledged bulletin board system onto my iPhone. I’m running lighttpd and using SQLite as my database of choice.

For those who are curious, all I did was type `sqlite phpbb.db` and then `.quit` in the console to create the database. From there, all I had to do was point the phpBB installer in the right direction.
