Updating the Database Info

[ducvu]

Hi all,

One of the hosting providers is canceling their hosting service so we have to move our forum to a new server. I've exported a *.bak file from the current database and used it to create a new remote database on the new server. After that, I updated the Database Information with the new connection string, and this is the message I got when I opened the forum

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

Can someone help me with getting this 4rum up and running again?

You can update database settings and paths with repair_settings.php.
