SMF Support > phpBB
SELECT command denied
thumbtak:
I understand what the two databases are I still have yet to figure out how to add the user from the SMF database to the database of the PHPBB3.
I need to know how to add a user in phpmyadmin as support doesn't seem to provide any help with doing this.
Illori:
you cant add it in phpmyadmin you must do it in your hosts control panel. or just make a new smf install using the existing database and a new prefix and you should be good to go.
Exodyus:
I'm going to piggy-back this topic, because it's what I have issues with as well, but mine are more technical questions now...
--- Quote ---Problem: SELECT command denied to user
Info: The cause of this error is that SMF and Software X are in separate databases and the SMF database user does not have access to Software X's database.
Fix: If your host has cPanel you can add the SMF database user to Software X's database. If your host does not have cPanel you can contact them with regards on how to accomplish this. As well as a last resort, what you can do is reinstall SMF in the same database as Software X.

So -
My hosting doesn't have cPanel.
My hosting also says that they cannot add a second user to a database.
So - do I manually download SMF and install it into the phpbb3 folder of my choice, and then run the conversion program from there?
Would that be the best option, or does someone know how to add a user to a database through myphpadmin & SQL?

If this is true, then how do you get around having 2 index.php's?
Illori:
please open a separate thread for your issue, this thread belongs to someone else. and please dont bump old threads. also your host should be able to help you with this.
