I installed phpbb3 today. It’s a forum cms then freely to download and use. Also it has lots of skin to try. You can get the source from www.phpbb.com and the tutorial to install it too.
I run all these steps and manage to install phpbb to my website here. But when trying to edit the administration control panel, I got this error
An appropriate representation of the requested resource /forum/adm/index.php could not be found on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

It is the /forum/adm/index.php location problem. the index.php in adm folder looked to the root location. In fact I didn’t install phpbb in the root folder, but as a subdomain.

So as suggested I edit forum/adm/index.php and change a line :

And try it one more time, now you can access to Administration Control Panel.
