Either should work regradless of version, even newer versions. However the post date from your links appear to be around 2009 so I would use phpBB version from around then. The php versions from those dates are going to be later versions of 5.2 or very early versions of 5.3.Did you mean newer version of php 5.2/older 5.3 rather than the other way around?
In other words pick a php version released before phpBB version you are using which should not cause any conflicts. Once you converted you can upgrade to last version of 3.0.X branch and run the STK which may find any DB issues.

After STK you should be able to go right to 3.3.14 but do that using php8.2 or 8.3
This I know will cause issues and Apache/MySQL will not start because of the port conflicts. It's possible to change the default ports but your question is better answered in XAMPP forum.I understand this is really a question for XAMPP, but any idea if I could install such an older XAMPP (which includes Apache 2.2.12) on a system that already has Apache 2.4.62, presumably specifying different ports for the two, or should I uninstall the current Apache?
