Title: fresh clean install no mods giving database error
Post by: Edward A Freeman on November 23, 2017, 01:27:53 PM
Just downloaded and installed smf 2.0.15 and keep getting this database error. There are no special mods installed or any changes to the software this is out of the box clean install.

QuoteIncorrect string value: '''' for function inet_aton
File: /var/www/html/smf/Sources/Subs.php
Line: 2663

any help would be appreciated as i'm trying to set this board up so I can move it from my local server to a live environment.

This is related to ipv6 support.  SMF 2.0.x does not support ipv6.  You either need to disable it or install a mod that provides ipv6 support.

The mod doesn't work I ended up having to turn off my ipv6 services on my LAMP server so that I could work on the forum software and make it ready for live site.
