Been working fine for me (php 8.3.14). Are you sure you're using the latest release of QuickInstall? Your error seems to have something to do with making a connection to your database. Check over your Database settings in QuickInstall.
It looks like phpBB4 needs different DB info. I have it working with these setups (2 different profiles) phpBB3 DB info: Database server hostname: localhost
phpBB4 DB info: Database server hostname: 127.0.0.1 Database server port: 3306 Database username: root
With that setup for phpBB4 Alpha1 its working.
That should not be necessary as far as phpBB or QI should be concerned. For what it's worth, I just put up some changes to add a Database Connection Test so you can test if Quick Install's connection settings are successful in connecting to your databases. #287
Currently phpBB 4 installer requires relevant PDO extension (pdo_mysql etc) to be enabled in PHP settings. Otherwise it won't work.
You might want to check if PDO is enabled for PHP version used.
