?

Actually...you may have it there...I believe our previous directory was labeled "forums", would that have an adverse effect?

**Edit: I'm not sure if this problem is associated with the DB Backup or what...but whenever I try to login to the Admin Panel, I get a message saying: "This user has not registered and therefore does not have a profile to view."

Yes that is possible. Also the reason the forum is locked into "Forum is down", is due to it being shutdown before the backup was initiated, which is it's intended purpose :)

As for that error message to do with profile, not sure what that would be, I will look into it after the release of Backup Pro version 2.

Razasharp 04-29-2005 11:08 AM

Yes it could well be.

It sounds like your cookie settings - if they were set for your old forum directory they will now stop working.

Try this:

> ftp to your site

> rename the directory of the forum to what it was AT THE TIME the backup was taken

> go to your site

> in your vB Admin Control Panel (ACP)

vBulletin Options > Cookies and HTTP Header Options > Path to Save Cookies

Make a note of the existing setting (for example mine is set to: /myforums/ )

Then change the setting to:

/

> click on SAVE

> ftp back to your site and name the directory to what you want it to be - for example you said it was: forums

> go back to your site and in your vB Admin Control Panel (ACP)

vBulletin Options > Cookies and HTTP Header Options > Path to Save Cookies

Then change the setting to:

/forums/ (or replace 'forums' with new directory name it is in)

> click on SAVE

----------------------

if that doesnt work let me know.

Go turn your site back on. :)

that's my point, it's not getting turned back on after the backup. this is killing my site. it was off from 4am-11am and the back up was long done. also, I even changed the option to NOT turn the forum off and it still turned it off.

Even though I have code that "supposedly" is supposed to ignore browser disconnection, I will need to make mods in version 2 that send updates to the browser..

possibly . . . . . etc..

May want to turn off forum shutdown for now, until the new version.

this must be what is happening to me. too bad.

This is a cracking addition, although I've noticed if I backup using this, my DB backup file (uncompressed from the .gz file) is 8.43mb, and if I do a backup directly through VBB it's 10.86mb!! Any reason why the file is smaller? I looked through the raw file using Wordpad and looked at the post table, and it doesn't look like theres 1500 posts in it!!!

After further investigation, I discovered that our directory name was "forum" before we were hacked and is "forum" now. As of this moment, I cannot login to the Administration Panel nor can I login as a User...I'm totally shut out. Whenever I attempt to login I receive an error message stating: "This user has not registered and therefore does not have a profile to view." Could this be associated with an improper vbulletin restore? This was my first time having to attempt to restore vBulletin, I assumed that simply putting all the tables back into the database would bring it back to normal...but it's been quite the opposite.

Razasharp 04-29-2005 07:06 PM

how were you hacked? via your vB admin panel? via your host account?

I guess you'll need to ascertain whether or not any other damage was done and for how long it was going on (u might need an earlier restore)

Make sure you can use mysqldump from php, make sure safemode is off, wait just a bit until version 2.

steadicamop 04-29-2005 08:36 PM

Thanks, safe mode is definately off, how would I find out about the mysqldump? I have phpMyAdmin installed if anything can be found there.....
