PhpBB Forum Installation error: Warning: Cannot load module 'SQLite' bec

I tried to install phpBB. I have changed all the file permissions required etc etc etc… and no matter what I do I keep coming up with this Installation error code:

Warning: Cannot load module ‘SQLite’ because required module ‘pdo’ is not loaded in Unknown on line 0
[phpBB Debug] PHP Notice: in file /install/index.php on line 440: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /includes/functions_install.php:24)
[phpBB Debug] PHP Notice: in file /install/index.php on line 441: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /includes/functions_install.php:24)
[phpBB Debug] PHP Notice: in file /install/index.php on line 442: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /includes/functions_install.php:24)
[phpBB Debug] PHP Notice: in file /install/index.php on line 443: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /includes/functions_install.php:24)

Solutions for This:
1. Open the file includes/functions_install.php
2. Find the code:

function can_load_dll($dll)
{
return ((@ini_get(‘enable_dl’) || strtolower(@ini_get(‘enable_dl’)) == ‘on’) && (!@ini_get(‘safe_mode’) || strtolower(@ini_get(‘safe_mode’)) == ‘off’) && @dl($dll . ‘.’ . PHP_SHLIB_SUFFIX)) ? true : false;
}

3. Select the code and replace it by this code:

function can_load_dll($dll)
{
return false;
return ((@ini_get(‘enable_dl’) || strtolower(@ini_get(‘enable_dl’)) == ‘on’) && (!@ini_get(‘safe_mode’) || strtolower(@ini_get(‘safe_mode’)) == ‘off’) && @dl($dll . ‘.’ . PHP_SHLIB_SUFFIX)) ? true : false;
}

Note, this is fooling the phpBB installer into thinking it can load all database types, when it can’t. This only affects the installer, not normal running of phpBB. Do NOT pick SQLITE when asked during installation, even though it will be reported as available!
