Here are two example configs:

• Website at http://www.example.com/
  • KU_WEBPATH: 'http://www.example.com'
  • KU_WEBFOLDER: '/'
  • KU_DOMAIN: '.example.com'
• Website at http://sub.example.com/kusabax/
  • KU_WEBPATH: 'http://sub.example.com/kusabax'
  • KU_WEBFOLDER: '/kusabax/'
  • KU_DOMAIN: 'sub.example.com'

If your paths match those, then you should be completely set.

This error occurs when there is whitespace in the php file mentioned at the end of the error. To fix this, make sure there is no whitespace (newlines or spaces) before <?php or after ?> in the mentioned file.

You need to add sections, and then add the board to that section. Go to “Edit Sections” in the manage menu, and create a section. Then, go to “Board Options”, edit the settings for the board you want, and change the section.
