Arantor

So what do you get now?

The -L-

I can`t even open my forum...it keeps loading forever...

Here,take a look...

Arantor

So you have a Settings.php file. If you check with your host, are the contents of it correct?

The -L-

Yep...my other pages (non forum ones) work perfectly....

Arantor

That wasn't what I meant.

Settings.php contains the details for SMF to talk to your database. Check with your webhost what the database settings should be, and then check that Settings.php actually contains them. You could even ask them to check that for you in one go.

The -L-

........dunno....should i restore my old files of smf (that old backup)...


And loading of the page finnaly ends with this error:

QuoteConnection Problems

Sorry, SMF was unable to connect to the database. This may be caused by the server being busy. Please try again later.


Arantor

You need only to restore Settings.php from that backup.

The -L-

I did but...hey...what about restoring whole old smf i could easly upgrade forum to RC1-2 i got backuped pack of themes and mods from my forum...and i got saved database...

Arantor

You only need to restore the files - the DB should be intact.

The thing is if you've reuploaded your files already - making sure to overwrite the ones there - uploading Settings.php should have cleared some of the problem already.

The -L-

Damn its no use...i cannot even access /repair_settings.php...-.-

I will install new smf RC1-2 can you just tell me how to restore backup of the database?

Adish - (F.L.A.M.E.R)

- What was your version of SMF before these things came up?
- Do you have access to phpmyadmin?
- What is your control panel you provided with?
- I think it was a simple permissions problem if the files of the forum still existed.

The -L-

Lets see...i don`t have phpmyadmin my forum is down,i got access via FTP and permissions are usually 777 755 .......

Ony thing that went better is that som4ething showed on my error log and that is...:

Quite few errors xD

I hope i didn`t do anything wrong copying this here and making my forum vulnerable...

Adish - (F.L.A.M.E.R)

What is the hosting service if you don't mind? There is normally a phpmyadmin access given by most of the hosts. I am just checking just incase you might have misunderstood it. The thing that can save your site is the database and thats why a access to phpmyadmin (the database which your forum uses) is needed to link back to your forum.

- What was your version of SMF before these things came up?
- What is your control panel you provided with?

The -L-

I was using SMF 2.0 RC 1-2
Host is http://mediatemple.net/

I am not the real owner,that is the problem cause i don`t have pay pal...my friend has the owners account. But i`m Main Admin of the forum and web... so he just bought it and rest is my work...i will ask him about phpmyadmin as soon as he gets back home...

Adish - (F.L.A.M.E.R)

- Ok, from what i see your current stage, your database details "Settings.php" data is wrong. So well fix that up and you might be good to go.

- Thank you for the webhosting site, it looks good, i might buy a package off them ;)

The -L-

Hehe :D So what do i do with settings.php?

Hehe :D So what do i do with settings.php?

I have PM'ed you on what is to be done. An average SMF support member might have spotted this sneakingly. Well currently the details are wrong anyway, so won't be much of a problem.

btw, your pages take a hell lot of load time. Was it the same way before?

And I see your database details are of bytehost. Do you have a clue of your database details? If so, change them to the one on your current host.

The -L-

Umm..i didnt understood the question...as i said my friend knows all about that host i just took over the host...my pages load time was usual...i still cant access the forum -.-

I did what u asked of me in PM but problem is the same...

Adish - (F.L.A.M.E.R)

- The question was, is the load time of the pages that slow as it is right now ? (I could access the repair_settings.php before but it took alot of time to load up)
- Forget about the load time at the moment, get the database details right inside your "Settings.php" to make the files show the data in the forum.
- I had asked you just to remove the repair_settings.php and the security risk about it, it wasn't a solution.
