0002162: phpBB3 RC7 cannot display any forum because ACLs are broken
This issue happens with latest phpBB3 (RC7) under windows and postgresql.
It happens with Pro and non-Pro versions.

How to reproduce:
- Login as Admin, go to Admin Panel / Forums
- Create new forum
- Optionally set Forum permissions to Admin (not required though)
- Return to Forum index
- It will show: This board has no forums.

It seems the problem is with function acl_get() in file auth.php.
It never returns true even if the permissions are correctly set (I double checked with the DB tables directly).
I modified the script to make it return true in all cases for a test, and I could view all the forums in the Forum Index.
But this is not a workarround because it disables the security for forums.
