The problem, is that the plugin mix db connection vars, so it is EVER better USE the
custom phpBB config.php
And this is typical one example of this scenario with this plugin (as well with several other plugins, that instantiate calls to the wp db, in different order (after) on the stack):
NOTE: use the custom config.php file to get WP_w3all easy to be installed on subdomains, and/or for compatibility with some external plugin: it isn't strictly required, but for example, some images gallery plugin that instantiate new db connections in different order, require to choose the custom config.php on WP_w3all to work as expected.
On plugin admin, where path setting:
Custom config.php and path setting to config.php file how to: you can choose to use/include a custom config.php file OR the phpBB root config.php file. If you want to use/include the custom config.php, set the correct path to it after you have completed this procedure:

it is REQUIRED to use the custom config.php in this case!
