Database Error

[kat]

How on Earth did I miss that?!?!?!

This is weird.

http://www.produo-gaming.tk/index.php?theme=1 definitely works, even though it doesn't switch the the fefault theme.

Maybe the theme hasn't had a virgin copy put on? Maybe that has some hacked files in, still?

Well, Let Me Explain Now.

Uhm..
After one of our admin account was cracked and my IP was banned. Stupidly, I deleted few rows and the ban database resulting in the Database error along with the profile error.

Then I posted this topic seeking support.

I have backed up my files, and uploaded a fresh set of files like you asked me to.

Still, no changes. I have posted a picture of my Database table in about the first or second page of this topic.

Did you upload a new set of files, for the custom theme, though? If not, they MIGHT be infected with something.

If you switch to the default theme (which we can't do, coz you won't allow it), does the error go?

[Kindred]

deleting rows in the ban table - while not recommended - would not have resulted in your issues.


your error is due to CODE, not the the database itself.

Yes, I have.


And No...I Just Changed The Theme To Default...Error Still Appears.

Can you get in, if you go to http://www.produo-gaming.tk/index.php?theme=1 ?

You might have to go twice.

[andrewill]

Yes I can in the first attempt.

[kat]

That is just sooooo weird, though, innit?

I can't get into plain old http://www.produo-gaming.tk no matter how many times I try.

I'm just off to bed, now. I'll have a think, overnight, coz this is just totally illogical and I have a niggling feeling that I'm missing something really obvious...

[kat]

Hang on... I just noticed something...

YES, I did upload the file on the link you gave me. It doesn't change anything.

Did you run it? Or, just leave it there? (Best to check).

[andrewill]

Ugh. I didn't run it.


I uploaded it and done


How do i run it now? :S

[kat]

It tells you, here:

http://wiki.simplemachines.org/smf/Repair_settings.php

[andrewill]

Oh ... I did that .

[kat]

All paths/settings A-OK?

Weirdness...

[andrewill]

Now I Get This


Connection Problems

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

[kat]

That suggests that the username's wrong, the password's wrong, the database name is wrong, or your host's server's down.

When did that start happening?

[andrewill]

2 Hours Ago..


And I havent changed anything.

[kat]

 Sorry. I meant "When" as "What was done, just before this started happening".

[andrewill]

And I havent changed anything.

Happened Randomly

[kat]

Let's wind back, a bit... Did you run the repair settings thing? Were the database details correct?

[andrewill]

That was a while ago..

This error appeared today. I havent even opened my forums today and I got to know about this cause a member of my gameserver reported this as a 'bug'.

I'm pretty sure I didnt change anything at all
