I just gave this a try. When running the XF 2.2.14 version the board just shows a message that its in upgrade mode and won't let me do anything.@Jeremy P posted a solution in another thread.

It seems to be an abandoned project. I wrote to Invision and they said Communityhive was a different company. Minutes after getting that reply they deleted the file.Can I ask why it was deleted?
That's what they have always maintained but there are support posts suggesting the lack of support since last December is due to work being carried out on version 5 of the forum software. So a different company with the same employees perhaps?I wrote to Invision and they said Communityhive was a different company.
Be sure you enabled debug mode.I just gave this a try. When running the XF 2.2.14 version the board just shows a message that its in upgrade mode and won't let me do anything.

We are creating a new free-to-use service to help independent communities reach new audiences and re-engage existing members.
That's weird because they also said it's their company, not another, in the initial announcement:
This website is operated by Invision Power Services, Inc. doing business as Community Hive and whose registered address is PO Box 6154, Lynchburg, VA 24505
I agree with the general idea. We really need something that can bring forums back and compete with/replace Reddit. One problem with an aggregator is that they would likely become a "content police", deciding who gets to be shown and added to the site. We even saw that CH started off by allowing people to pay to show up on the front page, which is highly problematic.It's a shame this didn't work. I'd love it if Xenforo could roll out something similar to this. People are always lamenting that "forums are dead", but one of the biggest sites on the web is technically a forum (reddit).
And while individually our forums aren't going to touch reddit, if there was a Xenforo aggregator app, where people could follow various forums, depending on their interest, it might be a good source of traffic and re-generate interest in "old school" forums perhaps.
I think the biggest issue would be adoption from forum owners, who often don't like change, and think it should still be 2004.

Do this step first, and confirm debug mode has been enabled before proceeding further. There will be some debug statistics in the bottom right of the footer if it is:I've tried this twice now. I'm not sure I have debug working properly. I added this $config['debug'] = true; to my config.php
Try going tochanged the xf.php to the older one and my board goes white with some black text saying the site is being updated.
admin.php?add-ons/Communityhive/uninstall
directly. If you still experience a white page with black error text, try adding the following to src/config.php
as well, being sure to remove it after the add-on has been uninstalled:$config['enableListeners'] = false;
The 2.2.15 version should work in this case. If you still have trouble, you may open a ticket with both server credentials and an administrator account and I will take a closer look.Also there is no 2.2.14 in my download
As far as I know they never gave a definitive reason but Invision the company seemed to want to distance themselves from the product by claiming it was being developed by another entity.Does anybody knows the reason why its killed from the developers/invission?
