I just uploaded the script to a web server running under Linux - up to now I only had access to Windows machines.
If after just installing it the script gives you errors about not being able to create the file 'guestbook.db', and new posts do not appear, create this file manually (create it on your workstation and upload it for example). It just has to be an empty file of that name.
When it is on the web server, chmod it to 777 - that is, make it readable, writeable and executable for user, group and public.
Worked for me, and I will include an empty file of that name in the next package.
Sorry.

If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Actually, chmod'ding it to 666 is enough (does not need to be executable, of course, only guestbook.php has to be executable). The demo version here on SF.net is running with the db file set to 666.
