Does config/installer/config.yml exist?

Then you need to ask your host to install the PHP memcache extension.

You need to update config.php and set $acm_type to memcache.

As the name of the header implies, it's for abuse purposes. If someone decides to use the email feature of your board to send spam, then mail relays can look at the abuse header and block that instead of just blacklisting everything coming out of your site.

We don't support installing into a clustered database environment.

PHP itself no longer supports the PHP MSSQL driver and removed it from PHP 5.3+. Thus it has been removed from phpBB as well. You will need to switch to the MSSQL Native driver or use ODBC. You need to update config.php with the new information: $dbms: This will be either mssql_odbc or mssqlnative d...

There's a very simple test to see if the port's open or not. Make a text file, name it test.php, and put this in it: <?php $fp = fsockopen('tls://smtp.gmail.com:587'); if(!$fp) {     echo 'Unable to connect'; } else {     $response = fgets($fp, 256);     echo 'Response: ' . $response; } ?> Upload it...

Most browsers have some kind of developers tool section which will show them, usually under the network section. It varies by browser.

Your site is definitely using Cloudflare. These are the headers it sends back: HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: Sun, 07 May 2017 00:01:19 GMT Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 Transfer-Encoding: chunked Connection: keep-alive Cache-Control: private, no-cache="set-cookie" Expires: Wed, 03 May 2017 21:33:15...

You have offsite avatars enabled. If someone with an insecure offsite avatar has triggered a notification, their avatar will be in your notification menu making all the pages you visit get flagged as having mixed content. I also see offsite posts from sites like photobucket that aren't using https.
