DB Error Notification Restrictor
 

While doing some dev work I was getting annoyed with my second SQL server disappearing and me getting 100 emails telling me so, now the problem was the database couldn't be connected to so I couldn't store the time the error occured.

I did think of a text file but I wanted emails for different types of errors so I decided to use SQLite, I also didn't want to have to deal with file locking and parsing.

You will need PHP 5+

You will need to do the following:

* Create a cache folder in your main vBulletin directory
* Chmod cache folder to 666
* Upload blank index.html to the cache folder
* Upload db_error_install.php to your install folder
* Run db_error_install.php
* Edit class_core.php as in the text file

If there is something like this already, apologies.

thx, will try out that one, i am annoyed of that msgs as well ^^

You can use PHP 4 too if the SQLite extension from Pecl is installed http://pecl.php.net/package/SQLite

This is so useful. Thanks Scott! :)

thanks :)

Marco did one a few months ago which I use (file based). :)

I didn't know, apologies to Marco for producing something so similar.

no more spam war *YAY* xD

I am running 4. How can I tell if SQLite extension from Pecl is installed on my server?

Look in your phpinfo it should show it there.
