Upgrading to 3.6 vBulletin error

Trying to upgrade from 3.6.0 to 3.6.5, I encountered the following error:

Check that the settings in your vB config file are correct.

I originally thought that was the problem as well, but when I checked the config file, everything looked okay.

Looks like you're barfing out in db_connect, specifically the line in bold...

Code:

                do

                {

                        $link = $this->functions[$usepconnect ? 'pconnect' : 'connect']("$servername:$port", $username, $password);

                }

                while ($link == false AND $this->reporterror);

I'm not sure how to fix this, as I'm relatively new to vBulletin and coding in general. What should I do to rectify this?

Check that the vB database is up and running; verify that you have access to said database: recheck the vB config file for any typos.

How can I check if the vB db is up and running? Sorry if I sound like so much of a noob, I kind of am when it comes to vBulletin. I've checked my config file several times; I really don't think I have a typo in there -- the variables match up with the ones from my previous working config file.

Assuming your board is virgin, or you can shut off all hacks via define('DISABLE_HOOKS', true); in your vB config file, contact vBcom support at http://members.vbulletin.com/members...ontactform.php and they can help you with the upgrade.
