I hope i can get your help. I think i messed up the link to the current DB. I was working on a setting up a test site, in preparation for a migration. I didn't realize i was on my current forum site's page. And i entered in the wrong information for the DB in the admin settings panel.
How do i point it back to it's database? I know that my new test database user would not be the same, so i'm confused as to why it would have made any changes in the first place. But i obviously did a number on it, for access the site, just comes up with "Connection Problems".
Thanks for your help.
What version of SMF are you using?
Apologies, missing things in a bit of a panic. 1.1.21.
check your Settings_bak.php file, it should have the database connection details you can COPY into the Settings.php file.
Oh thank you so much! That is the magic. Whew, that freaked me out.
I'm awake now.
