Dooh! I need a config.php copy.

[ccunnin71]

Ok, I have a backup at home. Just trying to get some things fixed on the website and I blew away my copy of it here at work. I know it's not that large. What 8-10 lines? If someone could copy the format up. Just put ###### in the areas for your 'mysql.####.com:3306" and then ##### for logins and passwords. I would really appreciate it. Otherwise I can wait till I get off of work.

yeah my bad. :(

Don't think it matters but I use VB3.0.1 as my sec. database.

Thanks

<?php

$dbtype = 'mysql';

$servername = 'localhost';
$dbname = '####';
$dbusername = '####';
$dbpassword = '####';

define('SD_INSTALLED', true);

?>


Save as config.php and store it under the "includes" directory.

Thanks subduck, you so Rock on support. Sadly, I get the generic error; Database Error.

This sad state of affairs came from a migration of my website from one MySql database to another. Had to do with some changes in my hosting service but I moved my VB3.0.1 from MySql_A to another MySql_B. Exported the tables successfully and reimported them to the new database. I got VB3 running great no changes (other then the ones one in forums/include/config.php (the database location, user name, passwords changed).
I did VB3 first as I wanted to be sure SubDreamer could get to a working database. Well I made the adj. to the SubDreamer config.php and I get that error.

A. Do any other files contain ref. to the database location besides config.php?

B. Could some SubDreamer tables be ref. the old database?

If adj. can be made to either of the above assumptions I can likely bring my home page back from the dead.

Another option is to reinstall. Will the install scripts overwrite my old settings? I hate to do this and loose a lot of customization.

Any idea's oh SubDreamer wizard :)

What is the error message that you are getting?

[ccunnin71]

Sadly, with the changes that I made to the database plus DNS is has not updated correctly. I am not getting any of the systems error msgs e-mailed to me. Sorry, I realize that makes this difficult.

My first guess would be that Subdreamer is trying to integrate with your old vB3 settings. Try getting to the admin panel of Subdreamer and change the vB3 settings (or just turn the usersystem off for now) and see if that works.

I did some searches in my database and came up with a ref. to the old name. Changed it and SubDreamer came alive... sort of. I will wait it out on the DNS change over for some of this stuff to get working right. It's certainly better starting to come back. I'll wait it out subduck. Thank you for your input.

I should have mentioned that the table 'usersystems' might have some back ref. to old database names.

If your email is not working, you can view your error messages by opening up:
