Hi guys I moved from a shared webhost to a OVH vps that is using the "cPanel" OS and I am using cPanel to do everything, since moving I have had a lot of problems:

New post block is not updating
When creating a post it will randomly double post without clicking the button twice

Lots of other odd bugs that just make no sense, I was thinking maybe the DB is corrupt when I transferred it but I don't think so, is it possible my cPanel has some broken configuration or some plugin missing that needs to be here to run vbulletin smoothly?

Are you not uploading files with a ftp program like filezilla

What version vbulletin?

What version PHP and MySQL on the old server and on the new server?

Ah I did upload the files about 2 or 3 days before I did the database, is this it?

When you uploaded the files shouldn't matter, as long as they are all there. Are you getting any errors in the error logs? (you should be able to see them under the cpanel admin)

That means your MySQL information in the config.php file is incorrect.

Why does it only sometimes happen? Last time it happened 4 times in 1 minute and once when I posted that, surely it would constantly spam everytime it wants to save some data? (e.g new posts, ect)

If it isn't happening all the time, then you need to talk to your host so they can look into why this is happening.
