SQL error - arcade down
 

Suddenly when accessing my arcade tonight, users get the following error:

The arcade is dead in the water. Please Help! :eek:

rename the user and remove the special character ' from his name ...

when does this appear ? Are you running ibProArcade v2.6.3+ ?

I changed the name but it is still happening. I am running 2.6.3 +a

It appears to everyone when they access arcade.php. The arcade is not operational anymore.

***EDIT: I ended up just uninstalling and reinstalling it to fix.

If it happens again, try running through the UPDATE process at AdminCP>Arcade>Update User Names.

I'm guessing the "username" was still in the arcade's brain, even though you edited the name via the part of vbulletin "outside" of the arcade.

I am having the same problem and have updated names etc in admincp of the Arcade section. If I unistall and reinstall will I loose all my games, have over 2000 in it I built up over 3 years...worried man.

Okay. If you are truely "fearing the loss", go in via FTP and delete all the PHP files ONLY that are within your forums/arcade/ directory. Then reupload the latest and greatest from here. Then run the Product again, making sure you ticked the OVERWRITE EXISTING option.

If that doesn't work, please list out all the mods you have installed on your vbulletin.

Reinstalled still no joy. Games are still all there.

When I search on the main admincp the main that had the ' in it has gone, but when I search in the Arcade admincp for that name that I changed it just throws up another SQL error, so need something to let the arcade know that member is now removed ... the tools under members has been run to clean it up but no joy. As for mods on my site, lets just say I have nearly most of them installed.

provide FTP+AdminCP access via PM and I will fix this ...

Thanks.

Did you get my PM ok, my arcade is still down.

Thanks
