tried rebooting server?

DraX · 01-27-2008, 02:08 PM

*sigh* it didn't work

baddog · 01-27-2008, 02:09 PM

You recently install imagecreatetruecolor?

DraX · 01-27-2008, 02:13 PM

nope not recently, it's from the beginning a server to server transfer and can't get the new database to work on the new server

baddog · 01-27-2008, 02:14 PM

oh, then you probably need to check your paths, and may possibly need to update htaccess

TexasDreams · 01-27-2008, 02:15 PM

Or did you recently do an upgrade and forget to change the file name of includes/config.php.new to config.php?

DraX · 01-27-2008, 03:20 PM

Thanks for all suggestions and ideas

But it's not working....

Could it be that I need to install vbulletin fresh on the server and then change to the new imported database ?

I have just copied the forum by ftp with flashfxp

Can't hurt to try.

Jace · 01-27-2008, 03:22 PM

your paths are incorrect

either you gave it partial paths and it needs full paths, or vice versa

but that IS the issue

btw, sure this is correct? /usr/home/mysite/public_html/includes/config.php

papill0n · 01-27-2008, 03:47 PM

best to post on their board - you will have an answer in 5 minutes

goodluck

DraX · 01-27-2008, 06:57 PM

I thought I was gonna start out fresh, but nono. I didn't get far!

Seems everything is going against me since thursday when my server went offline.

I uploaded a fresh install of vbulletin not the latest version but close - 3.6.8

I prepared the config.php file and uploaded that. And at the 2nd page of the installer i get this shitty message:

Attempting to attach to database

Error description: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client /usr/home/mysite/public_html/includes/class_core.php on line 274

The database has failed to connect because you do not have permission to connect to the server. Please confirm the values entered in the 'includes/config.php' file.

I have installed plenty of scripts im my days but these last days nothing has worked as I wanted.

Can any mysql expert see what im doing wrong?

Strange. Are you sure that you have MySQL 4.0.16 or greater?

It was a server problem all from the beginning, that's why it wouldn't connect correctly with the database.

Thanks for helping out though
