If you get a small plan from @MichaelCee , I'm sure he can also lend you a hand
Basically just get a server with apache/nginx, php, mysql, create a database and extract the vanilla forum zip into your public_html directory (or /var/www/html if running raw).
Almost the same way you would setup your wordpress website, just that instead of wordpress, use vanilla forum zip file.
It’s OK if you disagree with me. I can’t force you to be right!

I started by trying to set up a LAMP stack and Vanilla on a Hetzner VPS. My attempts bogged down in composer, which kept showing multiple errors. I have extensive notes.
If any of you guys want to hold my hand through a current Vanilla install from source on Debian sid with Apache and MariaDB and PHP, that would be great!

@somik Thanks for your kind suggestion! Docker is great! Nevertheless, before going with Docker, I want to try Debian sid and possibly NetBSD-current as well.

From what i see in the docker repo, the installation for the github version is complicated, but can still be replicated on local. So good luck with that

@nwnuyhs should you be trying one of these, please let us know how it went.
[back in the days the simple unzip install was the official installation method]

Kinda sad it got discontinued. As old as it is, I am happy PHPbb is still being actively developed.

Ya, i was summarizing @Ympker reply. Turns out vanilla forum is depricated from the official site. Only the github docker deployment is still available...

phpBB is one of the oldest forums i have used. It was fun to use and had those weird addons that gave badges, shop and... right... post to host! Be active in the forums and get free shared hosting

Probably any shared hosting with Softaculous should be able to install it with one click.
There's also this guide: https://docs.vultr.com/how-to-install-vanilla-forum-on-ubuntu-20-04

Back in March I had a go at installing Vanilla from https://github.com/vanilla/vanilla.
I started by trying to set up a LAMP stack and Vanilla on a Hetzner VPS. My attempts bogged down in composer, which kept showing multiple errors. I have extensive notes.

@MichaelCee Are you up for it?
@nwnuyhs How is your install going?
Thanks!
I hope everyone gets the servers they want!
Have you tried https://github.com/vanilla/vanilla-docker
Just install docker, clone the repo and run
docker compose up -dfrom the folder with docker-compose.yml fileIt’s OK if you disagree with me. I can’t force you to be right!

I believe they have stopped publishing official releases some time ago:
Community ones are still available: https://open.vanillaforums.com/discussion/39557/vanilla-2024-016-open-source-release
(there may be other links as well)
