Database error

[DeejayKez]

I got the following email message:

Database error in vBulletin :

mysqli_real_connect(): (HY000/2002): No such file or directory
/home/transliv/public_html/includes/class_core.php on line 1359

The attached image shows line 1359.
Can anyone help?

Likely a problem with your db settings in config.php.

I had a look in config.php and the database name seems wrong. It should be the same as the server name I ftp into shouldn't it?

[squidsk]

No the database name is whatever the database is named in the mysql database that you're using.

EDIT: Assuming your database is on the same server as your forum the server name to access the db will either be localhost or 127.0.0.1.

Hmm, I don't really understand where the problem is then.
It appears the error occured when someone was writing a post, so my guess is it's to do with autosave
