Hi all,
I am trying to get this vb merge tool to work: http://www.vbulletin.org/hacks/index.php?s=&action=showhack&hackid=786
but I get the following error:
Warning: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2) in /home/domains/yupz.com/user/htdocs/forums/admin/db_mysql.php on line 32
Database error in vBulletin Merge Tool 2.2.9:
Link-ID == false, connect failed
mysql error:
mysql error number: 0

Referer: http://yupz.com/forums/admin/bbimport.php?action=
Someone suggested it was a server issue, but both my databases are working fine. I think I know why I get this error but I don't know where to change this in the script.
The script is trying to merge my first database with the database the merge script is running from which it assumes is "localhost", but under the config.php file in vbulletin instead of localhost -
I have to use the ip address because it is not on the same websever.
Both databases are on a seperate ip to where my vbulletin is installed.
Do you know where I could change this in the script?
Thanks very much,
Kerry
