I have installed FUDforum 2.3.6RC3 and I am running it on a Red Hat 7.1 box, using Mysql 3.23.43 and PHP4.
I have added both categories and forums, but when I try to add a new topic, I get an error, saying
"ERROR: System Error
System error has occurred, ..."
The admin error log is empty.
I get the same message when I try to preview the new topic.
Any ideas?
[Edit]
I just updated to MySQL 3.23.53 and the problem persists. I can't seem to find any error logs anywhere in my system. The
/errors/ dir is empty.

I don't know where to look for error logs... I get redirected to the error page, and the internal error log is empty.
I get no message explaining what the problem could be, but because I can add users, categories and forums I think the error is connected to parsing of the new message.
None of the message functions (preview, spell-check or submit) works for me.

I have found that one, yes... I also looked in the /errors/ lib.
Nothing there.
I guess the error redirection hides the "real" error message from the user, but I would like to turn that off, to get sort of a stack trace.
I get the same fault behaviour when I try to preview or spell-check a message, which leads me to believe that these functions have something in common, and that my problem lies there. I don´t expect any of these functions to make a database connection, and the fact that I am able to create forums and users tells me that the db connections and rights are ok.

I think I know the cause for the problem.
I believe it is due to the file_uploads being off and a bug in PHP which causes the POST data to be lost when file_uploads is off.
This may also happen if file_uploads are ON but PHP cannot write to the temporary directory where file uploads are to be stored in.
The error you see is occuring because essential post data is missing.
