php4.3.7 + phpBB 2.0.10 + Apache - zero sized replies with no hits/errors logged by apache

My IHP, Netset, currently went into what I think is Chapter 7. I was stuck without a host for my messageboard.. Someone steps in and offers me a host.. cool.. I have a SQL dump.. I install phpBB, I import the data, I go to log in... I get a zero sized response from apache! Check the error logs.. nothing.. Check the hit logs.. nothing.. Now the person who runs this host tells me that he runs several other sites with phpBB and has no problems, which would make me think it's the data in my SQL dump. The problem with this idea is I can run the same dump on local test systems and it works just fine. Regardless, if there were some error, then I assume PHP/Apache should log something in the standard error log, and the hit should still register in access logs.. Would seem to me, if hit is not being logged, that apache php module is crashing? Does this sound familiar to anyone? Is it a known bug? Do I need to get host to update some stuff? httpd -V output: Server version: Apache/1.3.31 (Unix) Server built: Jul 8 2004 11:56:38 Server's Module Magic Number: 19990320:16 Server compiled with....
