Hi,

installer_common.php is a file that was last available on Mambo 4.5. From versions 4.5.1 and up, this file does not exists in distributions. That means that the solution you have chosen is relatively old.

Appart from that, it would be a great surprise if such a bridge could work without modifications.

Thanks for you repons eliasan
I  will try to see if i can download  a olderversion of mambo or just the installer_common.php
and than see what errors i will get
Maybe it works en than whe have new bridge to get phpBB in to elxis if so i will run my main site also on elxis because this site is using phpbb from the beginning.
