That means that it couldn’t communicate properly or that the phpBB side of things is confused, or that the credentials are mismatching. You need the file and you need to create two tables in the database – you also need to fill them with the Proper(tm) details.

“CommunityAPI Settings as follows:
API url: http://<yourforum>/api.php
API secret: same as the site_key column in the phpbb_api_trusts table. Think of this as the system password.
API site: same as the site_name column in the phpbb_api_trusts table. Think of this as the system username.
Groups: Whatever phpbb group you want to have the specified access.”

You’ll find the phpBB portion at https://github.com/kandsten/phpBB3-API/
I’ll make sure to update the docs on the main download page as well..
